prefix directive in configuration tool has no effect on install target(s)

[RomanHargrave]

I'm trying to build a package for some of the python bindings so that I can manage them with apt (as I do with many other packages on my system). I've invoked configure as follows ./configure --prefix=$PWD/_package_root_ --enable=python. After successfully compiling the bindings, though, attempting to install the bindings fails because the target tries to touch files outside of that directory (specifically, it wants to copy files to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu-radare2/1.1.0/).

Full transcript of failed install:

make -C libr/lang/p install

yeah, its using the info taken from r2 because it shuold match the same version. not sure if we should make --prefix work only when its different than the default. so, keeping current behaviour, but allowing to specify a different path or destdir
