Follow-up Comment #7, sr #111011 (group libtool):
> Goal of build tools is to help package manager(build engineer) to prepare installation. No, that is not the only goal. Installation by individual users, on their own machines, is a goal of the GNU projects too. See: * In https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html, it is allowed to not specify DESTDIR on the 'make install' command line. * In https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Standard-Targets.html, the 'uninstall' target would not be specified if package managers were the only audience. > "Make sense" in this context is just a lie. You should not drift into personal offense. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?111011> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
