Makefile bug

Hi Robin,

    There is a bug in wxPython makefile. In fact it is in wxWidget's
makefile. On line 12046 you forgot to add $(DESTDIR) before $(libdir).
That line must be like this:

(cd $(DESTDIR)$(bindir) && rm -f wx-config && $(LN_S)
$(DESTDIR)$(libdir)/wx/config/$(TOOLCHAIN_FULLNAME) wx-config)

I have faced this bug while making a slackware package.

Oops sorry I have misunderstood it

But after rethinking it can be a bug. I can't make install wxWidgets
using DESTDIR. What do you think ?

I think you may be right. You should submit a patch and see what the other developers think. Note that since Makefile.in is generated via bakefile then you'll need to make the change in build/bakefiles/wx.bkl.

I really apologize for bothering you. It was my mistake. There is not
a bug in makefile.
