Don't think there's a difference. The top of the source tree is the folder into
which the contents of the tar are extracted.

Subject: E2fsprogs aclaration...
Hi...
I dont have any troubles with the installation, everything is going smooth.
Now, I just have a question. Back in chapter 5.19 book 6.4 it states:
The E2fsprogs documentation recommends that the package be built in a
subdirectory of the source tree:
mkdir -v build
cd build
Today I was just reading the e2fsprogs INSTALL file and I read this:
To install the second extended file system management programs,
just follow the steps:
1) Change directory into the top of the e2fsprogs source tree
2) Create a build directory and cd into it:
mkdir build; cd build
does it really matters?
