bitkeeper revision 1.1159.223.26 (41f2cdb6LNpheOtPoAKEUn-czlZFig)
Description: use DESTDIR correctly Standard makefiles always attempt to install to the root(/). Setting DESTDIR is the normal way to install to an alternative location. Setting prefix has the possibility of breaking programs, as the prefix may have been embedded inside a compiled binary. From: Adam Heath <doogie@brainfood.com> Signed-off-by: ian.pratt@cl.cam.ac.uk
