OTOH this would mean that PREFIX=/opt/whatever would not be FHS-compliant, since that standard specifies /usr/share/man/ but /opt/packagename/man/. Probably as long as you first check both $(PREFIX)/share/man and $(PREFIX)/man and use one of those if it exists, I don't think the choice of share/man vs just man for the default matters much. >This at least ensures that if you say PREFIX you're *guaranteed* that >everything will wind up under that prefix.
