I've noticed a problem lately when trying to install files using configure and make on my machine. It didn't used to happen, but lately when I try to install programs, note below how make tries to install files in a /usr/local/doc subdirectory, overwriting exisiting ones, and then placing the files configure and config.cache in /usr/local/bin. What is causingthis to happen? Where is make getting that path of /usr/local/doc/vsh? I don't have it in my root path, I checked. I am just perplexed and wonder if you have any insight into why make would be doing this or what I should be looking at. Running redhat 6.2.
