software installation with dpkg -i vs. with make, how do they differ?












0















I've seen both these ways suggested for installing packages manually, but I don't know the difference:



dkpg -i <pkg>.deb


and



./configure
make
make install


So how do they differ? Is the former one only a "more automated" way of just doing the same thing as the latter one? Or they are completely different?



(asked here because dpkg is "debian package")
