You need to look at the makefile to see if it has an install target, and if
it does what it's called, and if it has a way of controlling where files
actually go (both respecting $prefix instead of /usr, and letting you
relocate via ${D} so it doesn't try and install to /usr on your build
machine). If it does all of those right then you can write a do_install()
that just calls the right make commands. Chances are that it does
something wrong and it's easier to just write a do_install() that creates
directories and copies files manually.
This is why it doesn't happen automatically unless you're using something
like automake - there's no standard way.
