mkdir -p /usr/local/lib
cp ./describe /usr/local/bin
cp ./describe /usr/bin
cp ./descc /usr/sbin
cp ./descu /usr/sbin
cp ./describe.1 /usr/man/man1
cp ./descc.8 ./descu.8 /usr/man/man8
rm /usr/local/lib/describe
rm /usr/local/bin/descc
rm /usr/local/bin/describe

install target:
rehash
descc ./describe.source
/usr/sbin/descc ./describe.src
