The install dir of DSSS itself. You can use the --prefix option to
install to a different prefix, but only with the 'install' command.
Also "blah" is a fairly strange prefix ;)
I didn't implement multi-prefix support into the net subset of commands
because it opens a huge can o' worms: A 'dsss net install' actually does
several installs (all dependencies), and often ends up depending on
things already installed, etc, etc, etc, the --prefix options would
either be complex or very limited. If you need to fine-tune the prefix
of things installed from 'dsss net', just use 'dsss net fetch', 'dsss
build' and 'dsss install --prefix'. A bit more complicated since it
doesn't do everything for you, but far more controllable :)
