Bug #186
DESTDIR support for the build/install
100%
Description
for ease of packaging, a DESTDIR is nice.
the attached patch allows the current functionality, as well as the typical gnu make style make ; make install DESTDIR=/tmp/foo
so no one could,
$> DESTDIR=/tmp/foo rake install

Hum, instead of patching the rakefile you could rather use the way that was intended for packaging: rake install destdir=/tmp/foo rake install
Anyway, I will just add it since it is probably easier for people familiar with just make, thanks.
Btw: For which dist are you packaging subtle? Is it already on the install wiki page?

For Slackware Linux, currently in my personal package repo (https://github.com/vbatts/SlackBuilds), but once the new Slackware release 13.37 is out, then it will get published to http://slackbuilds.org/

Ah, if you don't mind, can you add install instructions for slackware here: install I don't have a clue how to use slackware at all. ;)
