 > They also have a [https://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/FAQ
 #Why_is_it_not_recommended_to_install_a_pre-compiled_copy_of_Goog FAQ
 entry] on this topic.

 This portion of the FAQ was
 [https://github.com/google/googletest/commit/5437926b2213b1c45c2f34bd858734de90e5fffd
 #diff-c07107b4d3c5447d005aa4969d54f34bL97 removed without explanation].
 The parts of the Makefile that say `make install` has been disabled are
 still there, but `make install` actually works in 1.8.0. I do not know
 whether that change was intentional or just an unintended consequence of
 other changes. Someone [https://github.com/google/googletest/issues/902
 asked the developers for clarification] and the developers closed the
 issue without answering the question. I have asked them to re-open it.
