Newbie question 4

[Jaromír Mikeš]

Hello,

I continue working on my two packages jkmeter-0.4.0 and clxclient-3.6.1 which is actually library, but the first program is dependent on it so I should probably to make a package of it first. I am aware that build libraries is not recommended for beginners but it seems to be only way.
I am now trying figure out how to modify makefile  .... names of variables are different in my makefile than variables in "New Maintainer's Guide" http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-modify.en.html
I am not sure if I have to change them or changing /usr/local to /usr is enough in my case.
Any advice appreciated.
