title: Automake generating binaries to bin/ instead of in src/
body: <p>I searched for the answer to this question but couldn't find any good. Maybe they're old and something has changed, so I ask again.</p>
  
  <p>I have a directory structure as:</p>
  
  <p>my_project</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>src</p></li>
  <li><p>bin</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I want that, when I do make in the root dir, the binaries are put in ./bin, instead of cluttering ./src. But how?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: I am using C++. My Makefile.am has nothing special. Just the bin_PROGRAM and _SOURCES variables.</p>
  
  <p>When I run make, the binaries generated are put into ./src. I simply want them in ./bin.</p>
