+Subject: [PATCH] support/apxs.in: force destdir to be empty string
+
+If destdir is assigned to anything other than the empty string, the 
+search path for apache2 config files is appended to itself, and 
+related packages like apache-websocket will be unable to locate them:
+
+| cannot open
+/ala-lpggp31/tgamblin/yocto/poky.git/build/tmp/work/core2-64-poky-linux/apache-websocket/0.1.1+gitAUTOINC+6968083264-r0/recipe-sysroot/ala-lpggp31/tgamblin/yocto/poky.git/build/tmp/work/core2-64-poky-linux/apache-websocket/0.1.1+gitAUTOINC+6968083264-r0/recipe-sysroot//usr/share/apache2/build/config_vars.mk:

+line 213.
+
+Ensure that it is always the empty string so that apache-websocket
+is able to find the required config files.

+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate (embedded-specific)
