  It will install the static libraries in /usr/lib/skalibs, the shared

+ Please note that static libraries in /usr/lib/skalibs *will not*
+be found by a default linker invocation: you need -L/usr/lib/skalibs.
+Other skarnet.org software automatically handles that case if the
+default configuration is used, but if you change the configuration,
+remember to use the appropriate --with-lib configure option.

  You can strip the libraries of their extra symbols via "make strip"
 before the "make install" phase. It will shave a few bytes off them.
