Are you installing as root? Usually ${prefix} is empty and the
permissions for /var/log are set to be writable only by root.
Try
sudo make install
or su to root before doing make install.

Anyway, here's the latest problem: make install for scrollkeeper does a
bunch of stuff, and then does this:
>>>
/bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/var/log
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin"
; \
echo "`date +\"%b %d %X\"` Installing ScrollKeeper
`scrollkeeper-config --version`..." >> /usr/local/var/log/scrollkeeper.log
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin"
; \
/usr/local/bin/scrollkeeper-rebuilddb -q -p
/usr/local/var/lib/scrollkeeper

...
<<<
It just does that forever. Apparently something isn't turning ${prefix}
into whatever it's supposed to be. I searched a little and found a
thread referencing this problem, and someone said they were fixing this
and would put the updated tarballs online. But the scrollkeeper website
has 0.3.12 as the latest version, and that's the same version I'm using,
which I downloaded from the Gnome site.
Any ideas on how to proceed?
Thanks again,
Anthony
