This is kind of default configuration (the install prefix is $HOME/,
and everthing gets
installed into ~/bin, ~/share, etc). But if you don't have some of the
libraries (libcurl
for http, eventually openssl and iconv) you can always provide them locally and
set the appropriate compile and linking flags in config.mak (but see
the Makefile
for the variables to set).
