That's not a sentence. "takes in parameters the name" should be reworded. Something as simple as the word "as" between "in" and "parameters" would work: ..takes in as parameters the name..Thanks, I fixed that in the git version.
Also awkward is: ( from paragraph 3 of s 2.2.10)"but when running make install the DESTDIR should be set to the absolute name of a directory in which all the installation will be diverted."
Perhaps it would be better re-worded:"but when running make install the DESTDIR should be set to the absolute name of a directory into which the installation will be diverted."
or"but when running make install the DESTDIR should be set to the absolute name of a directory into which the package will be installed."
