+ Note for package authors:
+
+ To simplify rolling a package tarball from the installed files APACI
+ provides a way to override the installation root for the install step.
+ Additionally you can get rid of the user message at the end of the
+ installation process by using the `install-quiet' target. Example:
+
+ $ make install-quiet root=/tmp/apache-root
