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?).
