11To build:
12
13    make;
14    sudo make install;
15
16To build in a specific directory outside of the source directory:
17
18    make O=/path/to/build; sudo make O=/path/to/build
19
20  Note that the path needs to exist before building.
21
22To set the install path (the expected final location):
23
24    make prefix=/usr; sudo make O=/path/to/build
25
26To install in a directory not for the local system (for use to move
27to another machine):
28
29    make DESTDIR=/path/to/dest/ install
30
31  Note, if you have write permission to the DESTDIR, then there is
32  no reason to use sudo or switch to root.
33
34  Note, DESTDIR must end with '/', otherwise the files will be appended
35  to the path, which will most likely have unwanted results.
