[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-646) Erlang library is missing install target

["David Reiss (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-646?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12899637#action_12899637 ] 

David Reiss commented on THRIFT-646:
------------------------------------

I think AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR is meant to find a working version of erlang and AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR is for where to install the packages.  Is there a reason you can't set libdir or the environment variable ERLANG_INSTALL_LIBDIR?  If so, we could possibly run AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR and seth the ERLANG_INSTALL_LIB_DIR environment variable to the result.

>
> The lib/erl/Makefile current contains
> install: all
>     echo 'No install target, sorry.'
> The attached Makefile.am includes both an install and uninstall target which places things into the correct erlang library directory for the installed erlang.  This means if someone has multiple erlangs install it will use whichever it finds first.
> Also attached is the patch to configrue.ac which causes automake to recognize the Makefile.am.
> The current lib/erl/Makefile should be removed.
