When I only specify --prefix, it indeed works. However, it already
breaks again with

./configure --prefix=/usr/share/postgresql/8.1 --exec-prefix=/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1

I'm fine with dropping --bindir, --libdir, --datadir, but at least the
arch-independent and arch-dependent prefix should work. I do not want
to put all arch-independent data into /usr/lib, it would violate the
FHS and Debian Policy.

Is it possible to fix this?

Thanks,

Martin
