Are you running "make install" (etc) manually, or are you letting Fink do
the work for you? You should be able to run "fink install windowmaker" and
it will sort out the command line switches automagically.

That said, I don't see an obvious problem with this. I upgraded Python
this morning and it produced an essentially identical line:

  install -d -m 755 /sw/src/root-python-2.2.1-1/sw/share/doc/python

Worked without a hitch, installation completed normally a few lines later.

Where did you get your /usr/bin/install from? The developer's kit? Have
you been able to use it without problems in the past?

I'm confused now.
