Description
I've been using Bitten to build and maintain a set of co-dependent modules. Since some of the bitten-managed modules depend on other bitten-managed modules, I need to go all the way through and install so I can build subsequent modules. Of course, I don't want to do that in the default area (/usr). Instead, I added an extra parameter to the ctools configure method that provides an optional prefix.
I'm attaching a diff of my changes to this ticket. Any chance you could pull them in to the current development version?

I think it's fine to provide the prefix via a parameter, but I'm not sure everyone would want config['os'] automatically appended...
I'm planning to apply this without the ctxt.config['os'] - basically we should have a way to include variables like that in the recipe, so you can supply them to prefix that way.

prefix parameter added as described in r600

- Resolution set to fixed
- Status changed from assigned to closed
You should now be able to accomplish the setting you currently have with setting prefix=/usr/local/${os.family} or whatever other variable you want to interpolate - see Slave Configuration and Property Interpolation in BuildRecipes
