[Vm-dev] Unix VM configure question

[Andreas Raab]

Hi Guys -

I'm trying to build a unix VM that doesn't have to live in an absolute 
location (so we can install it in a user's directory instead of 
/usr/local/mumble). It looked like configure --prefix=. would be the way 
to go, but it complains about

configure: error: expected an absolute directory name for --prefix: .

How does one convince configure to use a relative location?

Thanks,
   - Andreas
