However, your change is wrong. DESTDIR is ALWAYS used in downstream to temporary install into a directory to be package as root.
Your change will break installation when DESTDIR is moved to /, breaking RPM, DEB, ebuild processing.
Please revert this change. and use git am with the attach patched.

Sorry. Corrected back to your version. My understanding of autotools is
quite limited, and my understanding of the packaging process is even
more limited... Sorry again.

Thanks!
Autotools is the best build system I know, it is the most fexible and complete. However, it takes time to master it to understand why it is complex to perform build and packaging.
I tried to help you guys in #81 to clean some up.

Ok, done in GIT repository. (with a minor fix to the destination of the
symlink, though not sure if DESTDIR is ever used...)
