Hi,
some operating systems use PREFIX/man instead of PREFIX/share/man as the base
directory for man pages and PREFIX/libexec/ instead of PREFIX/lib/ for files
like CGI programs.
At the moment the location of the installed man pages and the w3m cgi wrapper
is hard-coded in Makefile.PL.
The patch below makes it possible to install those files to alternative directories
while the default stays as it is now.
> It should be possible to use the existing MakeMaker variables such as
> INSTALLMAN1DIR (though MakeMaker lacks one for man8). I'd prefer not
> adding new variables where MakeMaker already has them. --[[Joey]]

<pre>
- Introduce two variables, IKI_MANDIR and IKI_W3MCGIDIR, to be set from
the command line. This enables locations for man pages and the w3m
cgi wrapper other than the hard-coded defaults in Makefile.PL.
