Hi,
I looked thru the diffs of the Makefiles in v5-10 and trunk.
Why do we define `datarootdir' if it isn't used?
No_Gnus$ grep datarootdir Makefile.in */Makefile.in
Makefile.in:datarootdir = @datarootdir@
etc/Makefile.in:datarootdir = @datarootdir@
lisp/Makefile.in:datarootdir = @datarootdir@
texi/Makefile.in:datarootdir = @datarootdir@
Bye, Reiner.

Those are only for silencing the configure script that I regenerated
using autoconf v2.61. What configure issues is as follows:
config.status: WARNING: Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
Autoconf v2.60 or newer is required in order to make the following
feature go well, and the configure script generated by those
versions of autoconf issues it.
,---- (info "(gnus)No Gnus") ----
| * The installation directory name is allowed to have spaces
| and/or tabs.
`----
cf. http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/thread=66238
I followed the way that has been done in the Emacs trunk.

Thanks for explaining. I added this comment to the top-level Makefile.in:
| # Avoid "WARNING: Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting":
| datarootdir = @datarootdir@

Do you think this change is safe enough to be included in v5-10?
(Before or after 5.10.10?)
Bye, Reiner.

Yes, I've merged it, verified it by
$ configure --prefix='/home/yamaoka/Program Files'
$ make install
$ make uninstall
, and installed it in the v5-10 branch.
