These are distinct; package managers use DESTDIR when building the binary
package files:
configure --prefix=/usr
make
mkdir /tmp/package-tree
make install DESTDIR=/tmp/package-tree
Now the whole package is installed in /tmp/package-tree as if that were /
so the package tool can easily scoop up every relevant file into a tarball.
