patch for Makefile.in #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The $(DESTDIR) approach in Makefile.in does not follow the autoconf standard. 
The current make file does not work properly with
    configure --prefix=XXXX
The attached patch fixes the problem.

How does it fail with the current approach? I was just installing Asciidoc and 
noticed a somewhat related issue (the forced install of stuff into /etc/vim 
regardless of prefix). I'm gonna file a bug about that but otherwise installing 
into a prefix seems to work just fine.

Besides, for packagers DESTDIR is useful because it allows installing into a 
staging area while still passing the "correct" prefix (/usr) to configure.
