Comment (by dnthayer):

 Replying to [comment:3 jsiwek]:
 > Yeah, when `broccoli-ruby` is included as a sub-project and dependencies
 are not satisfied, it just gives a warning that the ruby bindings will not
 be built (i.e. it's an optional component).  Which means in some cases it
 might never get the chance to ignore your `--prefix` option.

 On my ubuntu build machine, if I don't have both "ruby" and "ruby-dev"
 packages
 installed, then the configure just outputs a warning message that the
 ruby bindings will not be built (and doing a "make install" succeeds
 as a non-root user with a custom --prefix, because it doesn't try
 to install the ruby bindings).

 However, if I have both "ruby" and "ruby-dev" packages installed,
 then my "make install" (non-root user with custom --prefix) fails
 because my custom --prefix is being ignored by the ruby bindings.
