When I specify:<br><br>make install DESTDIR=/some/place<br><br>I expect said software to install to /some/place, not spam my host system with where "it should go" and to completely ignore DESTDIR.... As far as I'm aware, the designer directory is the only one that does this. It uses "INSTALL_ROOT" instead of "DESTDIR"....<br>
<br>This is a problem from a packagers standpoint and should be addressed.<br><br>Jon<br></div></div><br>
