  17 Installing and uninstalling
  18 ===========================
  19 "make install" will copy these man pages to /usr/share/man/man[1-8].
  20
  21 To install to a path different from /usr, use
  22 "make install prefix=/install/path".
  23
  24 "make remove" or "make uninstall" will remove any man page in this
  25 distribution from its destination.  Use with caution, and remember to
  26 use "prefix" if desired, as with the "install" target.
  27
  28 "make" or "make all" will perform "make uninstall" followed by "make
  29 install".
