Re: BUG?? INSTALL MAKEFILE

From: Ted Pavlic <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:45:52

but then realized that prefix is set to $(HOME) by default. Are you
sure you didn't edit the Makefile or run any sort of ./configure
before "make install" ?
After doing a

	git clean -f

in my local git repo, I notice that:

	config.mak.autogen

still exists, and inside it:

	prefix = /usr/local

That file is included in the Makefile *after* prefix is set, and so if 
it's not updated, the Makefile will default to /usr/local.


According to the INSTALL doc, the default prefix should be ~. However, 
this is certainly not the case. Either the INSTALL doc needs to be 
updated or a new default config.mak.autogen needs to be checked in (or 
perhaps config.mak.autogen needs to be omitted from the repo?).
