Dear diary, on Fri, Apr 22, 2005 at 03:55:21AM CEST, I got a letter where Chris Wright <chrisw@osdl.org> told me that...

I doubt this is actually what you want. I suppose you want
make DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT prefix=/usr/local install

instead. This may not matter now, but might well in future when we stuff some of the helper/library scripts to some lib/ or share/ directory, and will actually rewrite some paths somewhere based on $prefix during make install.
