Why do you use it then ? :o)

Right, use --prefix only to have the Makefile ignore it completely and
put the xvidix so-s wherever it wants to anyway.  Is that what you mean
?  I /am/ using --prefix and it works /almost/ perfectly.

Whatever it is, it should not ignore my choices.  Why can, say, wine
install it's shared libs in <prefix>/lib and not mplayer ?

Thanks.

P.S.:
Anyway, this is getting off-topic.  I'm sure you guys will figure out a
way of making the install process handle the xvidix libs properly.
Thanks for all the info.
