install(1)
NAME
install − install binaries
SYNTAX
install [ −c ] [ −m mode ] [ −o owner ] [ −g group ] [ −s ] binary destination
DESCRIPTION
The binary is moved (or copied if −c is specified) to destination. If destination already exists, it is removed before binary is moved. If the destination is a directory then binary is moved into the destination directory with its original file-name.
The mode for destination is set to 755; the −m mode option may be used to specify a different mode.
The destination is changed to current owner. The −o owner option may be used to specify a different owner, but only the superuser can change the owner.
The destination is changed to group system; the −g group option may be used to specify a different group. The user must belong to the specified group and be the owner of the file or the superuser.
If the The −s option is specified the binary is stripped after being installed.
The install command refuses to move a file onto itself.
