We decided to build evolution 1.2 with all its dependency module in gnome1.4
including oaf.
But,  we want to build a package re-allocatable. That is to say we can install
this package  in a nfs share directory. 
I wonder how oafd depends its $prefix setting, because when building , we
do not know where it will  be installed
:-\ ?
If oafd could not find $prefix/etc/oaf/ stuff and $prefix/share/oaf ... ,
can it work all right?
Is there any other env variable to help me to avoid this problem?
