This question is fundamental, but I want to make sure about it.
In installing the latest org-mode, I need to edit Makefile.
In the file, it says,
"Where local software is found"
What exactly is the local software? Emacs itself? or something other lisp
files?
Thanks in advance.

,----
| # Where local software is found
| prefix=/usr/local
|
| # Where local lisp files go.
| lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs/site-lisp
|
| # Where info files go.
| infodir = $(prefix)/share/info

The prefix option is (only) used to setup the lispdir (where all
lisp-files go) and the infodir (where the manual goes). Thus it's
about where you want Org mode to be installed to -- by default Org is
installed system-wide in
+-$prefix-+-$lispdir-----------+
| | |
v v v
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
If you, for example, want to install Org mode to your homedirectory
you could ignore the prefix option and set lispdir and infodir directly.
,----
| lispdir = /home/<user>/.emacs.d/site-lisp
| infodir = /home/<user>/.emacs.d/info/

HTH,

PS: And you don't even have to modify the Makefile. Passing the
variables (lispdir, infodir) as command line arguments to make works fine.
E.g.:
,----
| make lispdir=/home/dmaus/.emacs.d/site-lisp/org-mode/ infodir=/home/dmaus/.emacs.d/site-lisp/info/ install
