DESTDIR is a standard variable defined by most distributions while building Makefile packages and is expected to point to the "fake" package root directory. Without this the installed files will be located in the wrong place (build chroot) on distributions packaging without using fakeroot for example.

DESTDIRis a standard variable defined by most Linux distributions while building Makefile packages and is expected to point to the "fake" package root directory.Without this the installed files will be located in the wrong place (build chroot) on distributions packaging without using fakeroot for example.
Functionality remains unchanged for situations where
DESTDIRhappens to not be defined.
