Unsolved Added DESTDIR
-
Hello!
I cross-compile Qt-5.6.1 for ARM CPU.
How can I configure or define DESTDIR for install target?
Thank you and excuse my bad english. -
You may choose any folder name conform with your OS. With windows you should use instead of backslash a forwardslash.
The DESTDIR may be relative as in the example given or absolute.However, it shall be a folder which looks at least as on your machine (e.g. it may be on a mounted drive) and follow the normal syntax.

@koahnig thank you!
I explain my question - on configure stage I can use-prefix
for setup target directory,/usr/local/Qt-5.6.1
default value. After build I can usemake install
and all components will be copy in-prefix
.
But I build for another host and another application wait headers and librraies in another directory,/atrifacts/staging
as example. If source use autools I can usemake -C <source_directory> DESTDIR=/path/to/install/dir install
for install to another than--prefix
directory. -
@debian I had a similar problem recently and posting here since it's still unsolved and other people may need.
I've found a variable called INSTALL_ROOT at least in recent Qt: using the command "make INSTALL_ROOT=<dir> install" made the job.
