Impossible! Alan does not know how to compile? ;-) He's been up to early. |

Have a look into the build.log and you find the answer: |
14 |
|
15 |
make -j3 DESTDIR=/home/prefix/gentoo/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/texinfo-4.13/image/ |
16 |
install |
17 |
|
18 |
So it's not configure but make who takes the temporary install directory. |

PREFIX is indeed the final target. |
