install issue

[shiftleftplusone]

the installation guide I was using is somehow broken:

sudo apt-get install libjpeg8-dev indent libfreetype6-dev ttf-dejavu-core


# Next, build the library and test:

git clone git://github.com/paeryn/openvg

cd openvg
#  make will compile the font utility program, create the default fonts,
#      compile the library's source files and create the shared libray:

make     #ok

make library #ok

make install  # ERRORS !!    
install -m 755 -p font2openvg /usr/bin
install: file "/usr/bin/font2openvg" can not be created no rights
Makefile:38 recipe for target 'install' failed
make: *** 8install] Error
make install

You didn't follow exactly, for the install command it clearly says :-
sudo make install

Please don't swear - even if you change the word the intention is still there. It will not be tolerated.
