I have a quostion about the packaging page that says:

    The package is configured using (at a minimum) the following paths: 
      --prefix=/usr
      --sysconfdir=/etc
      --libexecdir='$(sbindir)'
      --localstatedir=/var
      --datadir='$(prefix)/share'

What are the values of $(sbindir) and $(prefix)? At least Berkeley
DB does not accept these parameters straight:

    configure: error: expected an absolute path for --libexecdir:
