           Summary: after running buildconf , --prefix is ignored
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: gabriel@oxeva.fr


When running buildconf on a new freshly extracted apache 2.2.3 archive, the
configure script ignores --prefix and other directory location options such as
--libdir --sysconfdir and so on.

To reproduce :
- extract the archive
- run ./configure --prefix=/not/default/path
- looking at build/config_vars.mk shows a correct prefix set (verified when
running make and make install after)

- clean up the directory, and re-extract the archive
- run ./buildconf
- run ./configure --prefix=/not/default/path
- build/config_vars.mk shows the default prefix from the Aapche layout
(/usr/local/apache2)

Remarks:
- using --enable-layout=AnotherLayout works (tried GNU as layout), changing the
prefix and others variables from the Apache layout defaults to the AnotherLayout
defaults (ex with GNU layout : /usr/local/apache2 becomes /usr/local), but still
ignores any path customisations with --prefix style options.

- This only happens once ./buildconf is run, not with the stock configure script

My build tools :
- Autoconf 2.61
- Libtool 1.5.22

- You may ask why I need to rebuild the configure script, because I want to add
a module statically compiled inside httpd (module is provided with the in and m4
files)
- The bug happens without adding anything in the source tree (just run buildconf
after extracting the archive)

OK, it works ! I tried different cases, with and without added external modules,
building configure with the patch added correct the path problems in all cases.

As this patch comes from SVN, is it already applied for the next stable release ?

This could be due to the ac_configure_args abuse; can you try applying this patch:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/apr/apr/trunk/build/apr_common.m4?r1=423435&r2=423434&pathrev=423435&view=patch

to srclib/apr/build/apr_common.m4 before running buildconf?
