Alfredo,

No worries. Yes setting $prefix is not sufficient to get *everything* installed
in an alternate location. You must, following the GNU Coding Standards, install
with DESTDIR set. Sometimes I've seen scripts that set install_root also, but
that's not strictly conforming to the GNU standards.

Does using DESTDIR fix the issue?
