has been removed. According to the official description of DESTDIR by Gnu at
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html, DESTDIR is
prepended to the normal and complete install path that it precedes for the
purpose of installing in a temporary directory which is useful for building
rpms and other packages. The '/' after ${DESTDIR} will be followed by another
'/' at the beginning of the normal install path. When DESTDIR is empty the
path then begins with '//', which is incorrect and causes problems at least for
Cygwin.
The change made in config/commence.am affects many Makefile.*s when bin/reconfigure
is run. EXAMPLEDIRs had to be corrected individually.
Also the scripts to run examples after they are installed have checks added to see
that the fortran and c++ directories are present before trying to run the scripts
in them.
Tested with h5committest on amani, heiwa and jam.
