I don't understand the need to call a shell script from the Makefile. According to the FHS, the main directories where you may want to install shell scripts, shell libraries, config files and their documentation are: /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr, /lib, and why not, /var. So you can use a very generic "install" target - and probably more portable/elegant than the find command above - with something like DESTDIR ?= / install: for d in bin etc lib sbin usr var; do if [ -d $${d} ]; then cp -R $${d} ${DESTDIR}; fi; done That's all; this doesn't need a lot of rsync's or find's exceptions.
