--sysconfdir=/etc: This switch puts the configuration files in /etc/scrollkeeper.
--localstatedir=/var: This switch puts ScrollKeeper's database directory in /var/lib/scrollkeeper.
--disable-static: This switch prevents the static library from being built.
--omfdirs=/usr/share/omf:/opt/gnome/share/omf:/opt/kde/share/omf:/opt/gnome-2.2/share/omf: This switch sets all the locations for OMF files for scrollkeeper.
/etc/scrollkeeper.conf
The configuration files sets the OMF_DIR variable to the location of all of the omf directories in the system. This was set in the configure command so no futher action is needed until another OMF file is created.
