Yes, you can use it as a library. I do not guarantee stable API, however

Can you provide me with more details of your system configuration? Dockerfile, ideally. Please send me an email.

Kefir build artifact is fully portable and agnostic to installation location. DESTDIR, prefix, etc are simply interpolated into launch script (template is here: https://git.sr.ht/~jprotopopov/kefir/tree/master/item/script...). So, no kefir binary itself does not know or care where it is installed, it gathers the information the environment variables provided by launch script.

The reason is that kefir supports portable builds which could be unpacked anywhere, so these path might even be relative.

(using throwaway account, as I don't have any access to my main one from this machine)

For out-of-tree build, use KEFIR_BIN_DIR make parameter. I use it quite extensively in https://git.sr.ht/~jprotopopov/kefir/tree/master/item/script... so this should work.

DESTDIR is supported as a parameter of make install: https://git.sr.ht/~jprotopopov/kefir/tree/master/item/instal...

As for the parallel build issues, contact me over the email please
