How to install software

[Knapp]

(Or better yet, use your package manager to install PortAudio v19)

I found this while installing some software. It has the normal
./configuere, make, make install.
I did all but the make install and saw that top line. How do you do
that and why is it better? Can you do it with anything you are
installing?
Thanks all.
