first.

-Libyang uses loadable libraries an YANG modules. It supports
-environment variables to allow overriding the load paths for each of
-these. With FRR, this override currently must be done at the time of
-running FRR's configure command using new options. The new options are:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- --with-yangmodelsdir=DIR
- yang models directory (${datarootdir}/yang)
- --with-libyang-pluginsdir=DIR
- yangmodule plugins directory
- (${libdir}/frr/libyang_plugins)
-
-an example which uses the compile directory is:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- ./configure --with-libyang-pluginsdir="`pwd`/yang/libyang_plugins/.libs" \
- --with-yangmodelsdir="`pwd`/yang"
Configure zebra to use `dir` for local state files, such as pid files and
unix sockets.
+.. option:: --with-yangmodelsdir <dir>
+
+ Look for YANG modules in `dir` [`prefix`/share/yang]. Note that the FRR
+ YANG modules will be installed here.
+
+.. option:: --with-libyang-pluginsdir <dir>
+
+ Look for libyang plugins in `dir` [`prefix`/lib/frr/libyang_plugins].
+ Note that the FRR libyang plugins will be installed here.
+
+When it's desired to run FRR without installing it in the system, it's possible
+to configure it as follows to look for YANG modules and libyang plugins in the
+compile directory:
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+ ./configure --with-libyang-pluginsdir="`pwd`/yang/libyang_plugins/.libs" \
+ --with-yangmodelsdir="`pwd`/yang"
+
