unconditional install -d in Make.common produces unneccessary errors (ignored)
Hi people,
There is one glitch in current Make.common that produces this:
make[2]: Entering directory `/debian2/web/webwml/croatian/Bugs'
install -d ../../../debian.org/Bugs
install: ../../../debian.org/Bugs: Operation not permitted
install: ../../../debian.org/Bugs: Operation not permitted
make[2]: [install] Error 1 (ignored)
Same happens for lots of other dirs... anyway the code in question is:
install::
-install -d $(HTMLDIR)
This should be:
install::
test -d $(HTMLDIR) || install -d $(HTMLDIR)
`-' shouldn't be necessary, since this should never fail; also we could
replace `install -d' with mkdir since that's what gets done, basically.
Can I make the change?
