Comment:
When making debs, rpms etc this is exactly what we want to happen. The
libraries are installed under the DESTDIR, but registered as if they were
outside it. Then the deb or rpm can be installed just by unpacking outside
of the DESTDIR.
If this is causing you problems then please reopen, with more details of
what you are trying to do.
Thanks
Ian
