By the way, in older days before binary distributions have become _the_ way for the end users to get programs, "install into a saparate place for tarring up" needed to be custom job per package, because Makefiles of many packages were not set up to easily allow it (like DESTDIR= stuff). These days, allowing it is almost a requirement in order to make binary distros' lives easier, so if a program is packaged for some binary distros (say, RPM or deb), often the easiest way to figure out the answer to your question is to see how they build their packages out of the source. - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
