OK, I re ran configure this morning, and just specifed:

--prefix=/opt/amanda2 

And the installation winds up looking like:

root@plabws1:/opt/amanda2# dus
8       include
5160    lib
1980    libexec
1516    sbin
1100    share
196     var
root@plabws1:/opt/amanda2# du
1516    ./sbin
5156    ./lib/amanda
5160    ./lib
24      ./libexec/amanda/application
1976    ./libexec/amanda
1980    ./libexec
68      ./share/man/man5

Since I install each application in /opt/{APP_NAME}, I'd prefer not to have
the 2n'r "amanda" levels. In the past I used dirctives like:

--sbindir=/opt/amanda/sbin

Will doing this still work? If so, what all do I need to specif? In the
past it was:

--sbindir=/opt/amanda/sbin \
--libexecdir=/opt/amanda/libexec \
--libdir=/opt/amanda/lib \
--with-configdir=/opt/amanda/etc \
--with-gnutar-listdir=/opt/amanda/var/gnutar-lists \
--mandir=/opt/amanda/man  \

Thanks for the help.
