Hello All!

On 2017-12-28 23:49 +0100, Yann E. MORIN spake thusly:
> Even though there is a hint of code preventing installation of applets
> over existing utilities, this is flawed in two ways:
> 
>   - first, the non-clobbering conditional code does not account for
>     installation as script wrappers,
> 
>   - second, only one option can be passed to the install script, which
>     is not very useful.
> 
> And finally, there is no way to pass additional options to the install
> script when calling 'make install'.
> 
> This series fixes all three issues.

Any feedback on those three patches? ;-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
