fake install path

[Jonathan Dill]

I vaguely recall that there is variable that you can pass to 'make' to 
install to a different root, similar to what happens during building a 
binary RPM, for example:

make install VARIABLE=/tmp/amanda-2.4.4p2

The result is that you end up with all of the amanda files in 
/tmp/amanda-2.4.4p2/usr/local and so on.  Then you can do something like 
this:

cd /tmp/amanda-2.4.4p2
tar cvzf amanda-tarball.tgz .
Then you can ftp the tarball to a different machine, "cd /" and extract 
the tarball.  Does anybody remember what VARIABLE is supposed to be or 
how to do this?

My goal is to set up a Snap Appliance 4500 as an amanda server--Yeah, I 
have already seen Preston Smith's page about setting up amanda client on 
a Snap 4400, and I also know that Snap Appliance won't take 
responsibility if I somehow manage to screw up my Snap.

Thanks,
