Specify different path to /usr/share at runtime?

Hi,

I'm trying to install nsis on heroku (ubuntu 14.04) and I do not have root access to the filesystem. I am able to install nsis to /app/.apt/ but it is still looking for stubs in /usr/share/nsis. How can I tell it where the stubs are without creating a symbolic link (I don't have root access to write to /usr/share)?

When building NSIS you should be able to specify it with the PREFIX_DATA scons build option.

If you did not build NSIS yourself you can try setting the NSISDIR environment variable...

The MAKENSIS environment variable works. Thank you so much.
