[mythtv-users] Problems with the runtime prefix

What controls the runtime prefix, mythfrontend and mythbackend use
which they print out when they start up. I have tried to set it using
./configure --prefix= but it doesn't seem to have any effect. The
output of the configure script has the correct prefix in it. But when
I compile it and run the programs they show they are using a different
prefix, despite the fact they are installed by make install to the
correct location.

This causes many problems, e.g mythfrontend is looking for its themes
and menu XML files in the wrong place.

Does anyone have any suggestions.
