Does this sound familiar? I'm having troubles with manpages
and the %makeinstall macro's. Quite often the manpages
get dumped into $RPMBUILD/usr/man instead of the
$RPMBUILD/usr/man/man1 (for instance) directory they should
be in...

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 urlview.man
/var/tmp/urlview-root/usr/man/man1/urlview.1
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file
`/var/tmp/urlview-root/usr/man/man1/urlview.1': No such file or
directory
make: *** [install-data-local] Error 1
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.48611 (%install)

Do we agree that this requires extra hacking in the
.spec file to solve this? Is there a standard way (in
a macro perhaps) that this can be solved?
