Subject: [gentoo-dev] How to fix pathnames in .ebuilds

I try to create an ebuild for ghfaxviewer and have some problems
with an absolute path (/usr/share/pixmaps) in the Makefile which result
in 'access violation' errors.

econf() replaces --datadir with /usr/share. When einstall() is called
--datadir is changed to ${D}/usr/share but the depending PIXMAPS_DIR is
not changed to ${D}/usr/share/pixmaps cause it was written to the
Makefiles in the configure step before.

What's the recommended and simplest way to fix such issues? The ebuild
HOWTO did not help me and also the hints in the forums could not help
me.

Martin
