Kevin,

I am reading debian/rule and observe that it works 
by first doing:
  configure --prefix=${DESTDIR}/usr mandir=...
then
  make
then 
  make install

This is because the lush makefiles do not 
support the DESTDIR variable popularized by automake.
Maybe we should fix this because people seem to expect it.

Here is the way we imagine the build sequence:
First do
  configure --prefix=/usr
then 
  make all
then
  make install-nolink prefix=${DESTDIR}/usr mandir=...

Comments ?
