While $PREFIX tells us where the files should be on the installed system
${DESTDIR} is needed to specify the file location during the build
process. This is similar to DESTDIR as used in meson or autmake.
Needed for multiarch installations

${DESTDIR}. This is needed for distro packaging where you install into/whatever/build/dir/usr/lib/libgovarnam.so.1.9.0but want the path on the installed system to be/usr/lib/libgovarnam.so.1.9.0.libdir. This is needed for multiarch installs where you want the libs to be in `/usr/lib//libvarnam.so.1.9.0sedmultiple times we use one call. In order to avoid problems when running out of diskspace we create a temp file and move that into place.With these I can build a policy conformant library package for Debian.
