Transaction: Ticket created by [email protected] Queue: krb5 Subject: Apparent bug with configure and "make install" Owner: Nobody Requestors: [email protected] Status: new Ticket <URL: https://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8975 > Compiling krb5-1.18.3 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 system. When I did a "make install" as a non-privileged user, I got a "mkdir: cannot create directory '/run/krb5kdc': Permission denied" in the initial "mkdir" section of the "make install". Inspecting src/Makefile, INSTALLMKDIRS includes ${localstatedir}/run and ${localstatedir}/run/krb5kdc, but these are the only two occurrences of the string "localstatedir" in this Makefile. I see that localstatdir is defined as ${prefix}/var in src/doc/Makefile, so I manually added this definition to my src/Makefile, which allowed "make install" to run without error.
