[Ganglia-developers] web/Makefile and DESTDIR

Hi Daniel: If you want to start a wiki page for that, that's fine. But in my experience these pages get stale pretty quickly ;-) Cheers, Bernard On Sun, Jul 15, 2012 at 11:40 AM, Daniel Pocock wrote: > On 15/07/12 20:27, Bernard Li wrote: >> Hi Daniel: >> >> On Sun, Jul 15, 2012 at 10:26 AM,
