#156 closed defect (fixed)

build system installs at the top level man dir, and not in the appropriate sections

Description

The configure script installs the man pages banana.1, monkey.1 and monkey-api.3 at the top level man dir, /usr/share/man and not in the appropriate categories: eg. /usr/share/man/man1/banana.1

See proton.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html/ section titled "/usr/share/man : Manual pages"

The fix is pretty straight forward, you just have to split up line 332 of configure and change

install -m 644 ./man/* \$(MANDIR)

to something like

install -m 644 ./man/banana.1 \$(MANDIR)/man1/
install -m 644 ./man/monkey.1 \$(MANDIR)/man1/
install -m 644 ./man/monkey-api.3 \$(MANDIR)/man3/

Oh, line 332 was for 0.33.0. I just checked out git and its now at line 350. I'm sure you'll find it :P
