The Arla Configuration program relies heavily on arla being installed
in /usr/arla, and some other things, like my own StartupItems script.
That program is supposed to be used in the package created by the
appl/mac/make-mac-package.sh, and anything else is unsupported.
I will try to make it work with other prefixes some day.
If you want to use the configuration program, please make your own
package with that script, or wait for the binary package that will be
out soon.
