writing an 'install' rule for make

[Stochastic]

So I'm brand new to makefiles and I'm in the process of packaging XWAX http://www.xwax.co.uk for Ubuntu, but the makefile has no install rule. What am I ever to do? Can anyone point me in the right direction on this one?

How are you normally supposed to install this program.

You need to make the install target in debian/rules do what you would normally do when installing the program (including setting up permissions) but rather than installing to the normal place you install to a tree under debian/<binary package name>
