Hi

I am using autoconf/automake to try to build portable makefiles for some 
software I wrote. I am a newbie in makefiles.

If I don't add my man page, all works out fine. But as soon as I add my man 
page 2 problems arises.

1. I can't use make distcheck, I get the following error:

make: don't know how to make myprg.1. Stop
*** Error code 2

2. When I do "make", the man page gets installed in /usr/local/share/man/man1, 
and not in /usr/local/man/man1. How do I deal with this issue and at the same 
time maintain portability?

My Makefile.am looks like this:

bin_PROGRAMS = myprg
salahtime_SOURCES = myprg.hpp myprg.cpp
man_MANS = myprg.1

My configure.ac looks like this:

AC_INIT(myprg.cpp)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(myprg,0.1)
AC_PROG_CC
AC_PROG_CXX
AC_PROG_INSTALL
AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)

Any help would be appreciated.

Best and kind regards,
Rico
