re[2]: [aspell-devel] bug: solaris build does not use --prefix properly

[Tyler Ross]

Digging  further into this, it turns out that what was happening was as follows:

- another aspell instance is already installed in the standard location
- new aspell instance is installed to alternate directory
- run 'aspell dump config dict-dir' in alternate directory
- executable in alternate directory picks up shared library in standard 
location due to LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting
- dict-dir is reported as standard location (e.g. due to config info compiled 
into shared libarary)

So this is not exactly a bug; and probably unusual enough not to warrant a lot 
of attention.

Cheers,
Tyler
