           Summary: the install process should support $DESTDIR
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-user
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: vapier at gentoo.org


if you're trying to install wine into a fake root before merging with /, you
currently have to override a number of variables (based upon how many arguements
you passed during ./configure)

for example, if you run `./configure --prefix=/usr`, you'd have to run `make
install prefix=/some/other/place/usr` ... if you passed --prefix and --libdir,
you'd have to pass similar values during `make install` ... all in all, a pita :)

it'd be nice if one could easily just do `make install
DESTDIR=/some/other/place/` like almost every other autotools package out there
