The prefix= can be specified to override the configure prefix like:
make install prefix=/tmp/amanda-2.4.4p2
This is not what you want, Jonathan. DESTDIR is the correct variable to overload for package building at the make install stage. PREFIX is defined at configure time as the install location. DESTDIR will be prepended to PREFIX at make install time.
Thanks for correcting me. I also found a decent explanation:
