* Update INSTALL instructionsMatt Caswell2016-06-031-23/+191

* Slight cleanup of the collection of READMEs, INSTALLs and NOTESRichard Levitte2016-05-231-6/+7
| | | | | | | | README is a fairly independent document, and so is INSTALL. NOTES are merely addendums to INSTALL. Therefore , INSTALL.DJGPP and README.PERL get renamed to NOTES.DJGPP and NOTES.PERL. Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org>

* VMS: support VERBOSE and V in descrip.mmsRichard Levitte2016-05-091-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | With Unixly Makefiles as well as with nmake, make variables are transferred to the shell running the commands as envinronment variables. This principle doesn't apply with MMS, so we must explicitely define VERBOSE as commands when it's needed. Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org>

* Remove the never-functional no-sctBenjamin Kaduk2016-04-261-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | It was added as part of 2df84dd3299ff25fa078ca7ffbdeaac65b361feb but has never actually been used for anything; presumably it was a typo for one of SCTP or CT. This removes the last '??' entry from INSTALL. Reviewed-by: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org> Reviewed-by: Matt Caswell <matt@openssl.org> Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org>

* Make "shared" builds the defaultMatt Caswell2016-04-141-13/+9
| | | | | | | In most cases we expect that people will be using shared libraries not static ones, therefore we make that the default. Reviewed-by: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org>

* Adjust some default installation directoriesRichard Levitte2016-03-241-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | - on VMS, SYS$COMMON:[SSL] is already used as installation directory by HP SSL, so we make our default for --openssldir SYS$COMMON:[OPENSSL-COMMON] instead. - Updated notes on default installation dirs fir Unix and Windows Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org>

* Change the INSTALL documentation for unified buildsRichard Levitte2016-03-081-147/+188
| | | | | | | | Because of the unified scheme, building on different platforms is very similar. We currently have Unix and OpenVMS on the unified scheme, which means that a separate INSTALL.VMS is no longer needed. Reviewed-by: Matt Caswell <matt@openssl.org>
* Rename INSTALL_PREFIX to DESTDIR, remove option --install_prefixRichard Levitte2016-02-121-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | INSTALL_PREFIX is a confusing name, as there's also --prefix. Instead, tag along with the rest of the open source world and adopt the Makefile variable DESTDIR to designate the desired staging directory. The Configure option --install_prefix is removed, the only way to designate a staging directory is with the Makefile variable (this is also implemented for VMS' descrip.mms et al).
