It's not installing into the destroot, it's installing to the final
destination. This is incorrect and prevents making prebuilt packages, and
may mess up the buildbot. It should be installing to the destroot tree,
usually by specifying DESTDIR=$destroot to the install phase (this is the
convention used by most Linux package managers, which also work this way).
