How about this? I took into account Ralf's comments as well. In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give options like @option{--bind...@var{dir}} to specify different values for particular kinds of files. Run @samp{configure --help} for a list of the directories you can set and what kinds of files go in them. In general, the default for these options is expressed in terms of @sam...@{prefix@}}, so that specifying just @option{--prefix} will affect all of the other directory specifications. If you wish to install the package into a staging directory (e.g. for packaging or testing purposes) then you can set the DESTDIR variable, @samp{make destd...@var{dir} install}.
