#65268: lowdown @1.0.0: make install in build phase?
------------------------+----------------------
 Reporter:  ryandesign  |      Owner:  judaew
     Type:  defect      |     Status:  assigned
 Priority:  Normal      |  Milestone:
Component:  ports       |    Version:  2.7.2
 Keywords:              |       Port:  lowdown
------------------------+----------------------
 The lowdown port runs `make install install_lib_common install_shared` (as
 the macports user) in the build phase, which is unusual, especially since
 MacPorts will run `make install` again (as root) in the destroot phase.
 Usually in the build phase ports run `make` or `make all` or some other
 makefile target that builds the software, leaving the makefile's
 installation target(s) to be run only in the destroot phase. If this build
 system is so unusual that it really requires the installation targets to
 be invoked in the build phase, that should be explained in a portfile
 comment ideally with a link to the upstream bug report. Also, note that
 MacPorts adds parallel build flags like `-j8` during the build phase but
 not during the destroot phase because we found that many build systems
 fail when installing in parallel. So MacPorts will run your `make install
 install_lib_common install_shared` during the build phase with the
 parallel build flags. So far this is not failing on the build machines, so
 this makefile may be designed to accommodate parallel install, or it could
 just be luck.
