What is /path/to/your/hdf5/installation

Dear Users and Experts

I installed HDF5 on my home directory ( /home/sherifyehia/HDF_Group/HDF5/1.14.0)

I need to install Vasp software they want me to mention the root place to compile vasp
they ask where is the HDF5_ROOT as follows

1-HDF5_ROOT ?= /path/to/your/hdf5/installation

Is it correct to put 2 instead of one
2- HDF5_ROOT ?= /home/sherifyehia/HDF_Group/HDF5/1.14.0 as my HDF5_ROOT

Thank you all for the help

If I understand the question, yes #2 should be the ROOT path as it should contain the subfolders; bin, include, lib, share, cmake.
