Description Enrico Scholz 2003-05-29 12:42:58 UTC 
Description of problem:

---
$ echo 'use ExtUtils::MakeMaker; WriteMakefile();' >Makefile.PL
$ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr
$ cat Makefile | grep DESTDIR
DESTDIR = 
PREFIX = $(DESTDIR)/usr
PERLPREFIX = $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)
SITEPREFIX = $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)
VENDORPREFIX = $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)
---

when calling 'make install DESTDIR=/tmp/foobar', files will be installed into

| /tmp/foobar/tmp/foobar/usr/perl...

but not into

| /tmp/foobar/usr/perl

as expected.
