== The Problem ==
rubiks is failing to install. I believe it is believing the {{{install}}}
program is the {{{GNU install}}}, whereas in fact IBM provide their own on
AIX, which is not compatible.
This is the first {{{install}}} program in the PATH
{{{
-bash-4.1$ command -v install
/usr/bin/install
}}}
We can see this is not the GNU install program.
{{{
-bash-4.1$ /usr/bin/install -h
getopt: Not a recognized flag: h
Usage: install [-c DirectoryA] [-f DirectoryB] [-i] [-m] [-M Mode] [-O
Owner]
[-G Group] [-S] [-n DirectoryC] [-o] [-s] File [DirectoryX
...]
-bash-4.1$ /usr/bin/install --help
getopt: Not a recognized flag: -
getopt: Not a recognized flag: h
getopt: Not a recognized flag: e
getopt: Not a recognized flag: l
getopt: Not a recognized flag: p
Usage: install [-c DirectoryA] [-f DirectoryB] [-i] [-m] [-M Mode] [-O
Owner]
[-G Group] [-S] [-n DirectoryC] [-o] [-s] File [DirectoryX
...]
}}}
This results in some odd permission problems when rubiks tries to install
itself:
