I recommend using 'stow' when you install.
Compile with prefix=/opt/name-and-version (say /opt/ardour-3.0.1) and
after installing run 'stow -d /opt -t /usr/local ardour-3.0.1' to
create symlinks in /usr/local.
If you later decide the program is buggy as hell and want to remove it
you run 'stow -D -d /opt -t /usr/local ardour-3.0.1 ; rm -rf
/opt/ardour-3.0.1' to remove the symlinks and the program.
