- <answer>
- <para>Yes, this is the general idea; as its name might
- suggest,
- <command>make <maketarget>world</maketarget></command>
- rebuilds every system binary from scratch, so you can be
- certain of having a clean and consistent environment at the
- end (which is why it takes so long).</para>
-
- <para>If the environment variable <envar>DESTDIR</envar>
- is defined while running
- <command>make <maketarget>world</maketarget></command> or
- <command>make <maketarget>install</maketarget></command>,
- the newly-created binaries will be deposited in a directory
- tree identical to the installed one, rooted at
- <literal>${DESTDIR}</literal>. Some random combination of
- shared libraries modifications and program rebuilds can
- cause this to fail in
- <command>make <maketarget>world</maketarget></command>
- however.</para>
