   4 Installing and uninstalling

   8 To install to a path different from /usr, use
   9 "make install prefix=/install/path".
  10
  11 "make remove" or "make uninstall" will remove any man page in this
  12 distribution from its destination.  Use with caution, and remember to
  13 use "prefix" if desired, as with the "install" target.

  15 "make" or "make all" will perform "make uninstall" followed by "make
