Let me get this straight: you didn't install the software because it
didn't create the man directories???

So, if we do these two things:

1. make the mkdir commands as

   echo 'if test ! -d /usr/lib; then mkdir /usr/lib; else true; fi' | sh -v

2. create the man subdirs.

and we then document the fact that intermediate directories aren't built,
will that explain/fix everything?

/mtr

ps: you really shouldn't use the isode list for reporting bugs.
