flac dev - May 2006 - Is CVS safe for daily use? Why can't I 'make install' to my home?

Hello,

I need flac bug, which is already in cvs (1328191) fixed, so I was
wondering first is cvs safe for everyday use? I can understand a
crash, but corrupt files aren't common right? Also, when trying to
'make install' to prefix=/home/sbh I get:


 /bin/sh ../../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c
'libFLAC++.la' '/home/sbh//lib/libFLAC++.la'
libtool: install: error: cannot install `libFLAC++.la' to a directory
not ending in /usr/local/lib

Is that correct? Thanks

I try to make sure CVS always builds for posix systems.  windows
fixes do not usually come until near the release.  CVS code should
not generate corrupt files or be non-lossless either but there is
always some risk.

that I've never seen before and looks like a libtool problem.
I've built an installed the latest to a local directory with no
problem (libtool-1.5.16)
