Hi,

Using DESTDIR during 'make install' is very common for binary-packagers.
I've seen some problems on various platforms (mostly hpux and aix),
which do not appear when installing without DESTDIR.

So, am I missing something here, or are there no libtool-checks using
DESTDIR installs at all ?

I mean sth. like this:

     1. $ configure ...
     2. $ make
     3. $ make install DESTDIR=./_image
     4. $ make clean
     5. copy "_image/$prefix" to "$prefix"
     6. remove _image
     7. run the installed executables from $prefix

The two cleanup steps (4 and 6) are to check that the installed binaries
do not depend on libs in build- or image-dir.

Thanks,
/haubi/
