I assume this is in an interaction with b6a0d469cae.
I think we need a install-test-modules or such that installs into the normal
directory.
Exactly.
Here's a prototype for that.
It adds an install-test-files target, Because we want to install into a normal
directory, I removed the necessary munging of the target paths from
meson.build and moved it into install-test-files. I also added DESTDIR
support, so that installing can redirect the directory if desired. That's used
for the tmp_install/ installation now.
I didn't like the number of arguments necessary for install_test_files, so I
changed it to use
--install target list of files
which makes it easier to use for further directories, if/when we need them.
So if I understand this right, the way to use this would be something like:
local $ENV{DESTDIR} = $installdir;
run_log("meson compile -C $pgsql install-test-files");
Is that right? I did that but it didn't work :-(
OK, tried without the `local` line and it worked, so let's push this.
cheers
