$ ./configure
$ make bootstrap
Then I edited the Makefile to use ${prefix}=/scratchdisk/myfolder and ran
$ make install
But this fails as make tries to install _some_ files in /usr/local/share/
How do I ask make to install everything in /scratchdisk/myfolder ?
$ make distclean
$ ./configure prefix=/scratchdisk/myfolder
$ make
$ make install
Also can I remove my build directory after `make install' succeeds?
(short on disk space)
Yes.
