So I guess this means it breaks?
I usually do. You'd be surprised how many don't know about DESTDIR and
use cp.
However, "install" is quite inconvenient when copying directories with many
files inside. Simply running "cp" and then changing permissions with
"
find ${pkgdir}/.../ -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find ${pkgdir}/.../ -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
"
is a reasonable workaround, at least for me.

read "man install":
e.g.
install -t $pkgdir/target src/dir/*
