Why do you “make install” rather than “make” and then “make install” separately?

It saves time, eg. Qt is about 40 seconds faster to build without the separate steps. However some projects won’t build this way because their Makfile dependencies aren’t set right, so beware!

I wrote a formula and the deps function is ignored!

Yes, sorry to mislead you with all the deps function in all the formulae, but the dependency resolution is not yet complete. But do add similar signatures for deps to the other packages. That way it’ll just start working when we get that functionality written.
