Thanks, Hamish.  I did indeed choose a non-standard
install path.  Wasn't aware that there was a "dh_install"
command in the auto* scripts, though. Is there a man page
about it somehwere?

Forgot to mention that I installed from a tarball, to an
FC-1 system.


Thanks again for replying.

I finally got around to installing gerbv-1.0.1.  The quality

I did run into a few surprises during the "make install"
command....


FYI, here's the commands used to build the Debian package:

Build:
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-exportpng --enable-gtk2
$(MAKE)


Install (into a temporary directory):

        $(MAKE) install DESTDIR=`pwd`/debian/gerbv
        mv debian/gerbv/usr/man debian/gerbv/usr/share

        dh_installdocs AUTHORS README TODO doc/*.txt

(That last line copies over those files listed to /usr/share/doc/gerbv).

It has to move the manual directory manually because its installed in a
non-FHS compliant directory. I could probably fix that using --mandir on
the configure call instead.
