Normally one sets the prefix during configure, and make picks up the
settings, but for daq one seems to need both:

configure --libdir=/usr/lib64
make
make install prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr exec_prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr
libdir=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib64

By the way do you have any suggestions how to get rid of rpath performed
during linking of daq?
