<!-- This should not be necessary any longer, but leaving it as a comment

<note><para><command>make install</command> will need path access to
<filename class="directory">$GNOME_PREFIX/bin</filename>. If you use the

were made only to a user's account, you will need to adjust root's path prior
to running <command>make install</command>.</para></note>
