     Type:  defect                 |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  medium                 |   Milestone:  PostGIS 2.1.4
Component:  build/upgrade/install  |     Version:  2.0.x        
 Keywords:                         |  
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 make should perform all building steps, and make install should only copy
 (via "install") files to ${DESTDIR}, with an exception for libtool to
 relink binaries/libraries that had been pointing at libraries in the
 workding directory.

 To repeat, run make as a non-root user, and make install as root, and look
 for root-written files in the working directory, as well as observing
 build commands in the log.

 This isn't incredibly serious, but could be cause for packaging systems to
 reject postgis.

 I definitely just saw this, but now can't reproduce.  Anyone else?
