Sorry, forgot to CC..
Probably need to explicitely install them during do-install or post-install.
That's likely the only way to be sure it gets to be where you want it to.
Autotools are a nightmare. With *BSD one could even ask if they do more harm
than good in many cases. It's _always_ messy. Even on *i*ux I sometimes think
this is the case. I guess it helps folks to get generated Makefiles.
If I were you I'd use post-install and be done with it (if carefully handled
and added to plist it will also always be removed as-should upon uninstall).
I always think that if you can't control what's supposed to be used but you
can easily control your own stupid focussed solution, go for the latter.
HTH,
Dan
