Gentoo uses a "build root" in the same sense. all packages are compiled and
then installed into a temporary root before being merged to the actual file
system. we utilize DESTDIR very heavily. i imagine the issue you're hitting
would be easily reproducible by:
- install an older version of the package in /
- build up the latest version in ~/ and then do:
$ make install DESTDIR=$PWD/foo
and then verify that everything in foo/ is linked against the right thing
