Re: DESTDIR support

Hi,

Oddly enough, Frank's method seems to work:

Instead of my original attempt, which was : edit Makefile, set 
DESTDIR=/root/tmp, then run make install
the second attempt:

restore Makefile
make install INSTALL_PREFIX=/root/net-snmp

that worked. I don't understand, because the Makefile says 
'INSTALL_PREFIX=$(DESTDIR), so both methods should have been the same.

Thanks Frank.

Mike
