I can't say anything definitive. All I know is that a simple "make && make install" usually works for me. But, as far as I understand it, omitting the "make clean" has the potential to cause problems, because org source files are occasionally renamed or made obsolete. So if you run into any problems after an install, you should run make clean. Best, Matt
