If --datadir is not given, it uses '${datarootdir}/cnijlgmon3',
with the unsubstituted variable.
Motivation for this change
I have a Canon MG5620 printer which could not print using the cnijfilter2 cups driver. I found that the cnijlgmon3 program was looking for its resource file in the literal
${datarootdir}/cnijlgmon3
directory, which doesn't exist, instead of$out/share/cnijlgmon3
where the file exists.By supplying an appropriate
--datadir
argument during the build,cnijlgmon3
finds its resource file, and I can print.Things done
