Description John Baldwin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2005-04-07 22:00:17 UTC 
The pre-install target is run as the user that invoked 'make install'.  If this user is not root, they can't create files or directories under ${PREFIX}.

Fix: Use pre-su-install instead:



-pre-install:
+pre-su-install:
        @if [ ! -d ${DATADIR} ]; then ${MKDIR} ${DATADIR}; fi
