Description:
Auto-DESTDIR is a set of programs for POSIX/Unix/Linux systems
that helps automate program installation from source code.
The Auto-DESTDIR tools (run-redir and make-redir)
redirect file installations so that the installed
files are placed inside the the $DESTDIR directory,
even if the provided makefile doesn't support the DESTDIR convention.
For example, you can replace "make install" with
"make-redir DESTDIR=xyz install", and
then all files are stored inside $DESTDIR.

This program can be useful for creating native packages (e.g., RPM or deb),
or for installing programs from source code to be managed by tools
like GNU stow.

Note: rpmlint gives one warning:
 auto-destdir.src:50: W: configure-without-libdir-spec
This warning is irrelevant; this only installs bash scripts and documentation,
so there's no libdir to use.
