Did you really fail to build from source?
As far as I tried, there was no problem and generated (top) Makefile
contained the line
mandir = ${prefix}/share/man/man$(manext)
so, I guessed,
make install prefix=`pwd`/debian/tmp/usr texmf=`pwd`/debian/...
seemed enough to provide the correct mandir.
Am I missing some important point?
Best regards, 2002.2.25
