---------------------------------------

             Summary: installation does not take place in given prefix entirely
                 Key: BIT-1166
                 URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1166
             Project: Bro Issue Tracker
          Issue Type: Problem
          Components: Bro, BroControl
    Affects Versions: git/master
            Reporter: Matthias Vallentin


When configuring Bro to remain in a given prefix, say {{/opt/bro}}, the installation of BroControl still attempts to create a spool directory outside of the prefix:

{code}
./configure --prefix=/opt/bro
make
make install
[...]
CMake Error at aux/broctl/cmake_install.cmake:200 (FILE):
  file cannot create directory: /var/opt/bro/spool.  Maybe need
  administrative privileges.
{code}
