But (checkinstall aside for the moment), I would like clarification,
since my attempt to 'make install' of the latest goffice 0.5.3 failed
because of permissions.  Please verify or correct me on the following:
$ ./configure
$ ./make
# ./make install

Almost certainly, the recipe is

$ ./configure
$ make
# make install

No ./ qualifier on "make".   And it could be
$ sudo make install

Thanks Carl for going beyond what I asked. I always appreciate when I get specifically what I ask for, especially when it is accompanied by more.
