Hi Daniel. 
I believe so, I used this configuration because my libdrm doesn’t build if I use the default config options.

-Thanks

Hello Vasavee,

Is your user allowed to write files on the --prefix=/usr and the --exec-prefix=/ directories?

If you want to install it on the default place you don't need to specify those
