Not everybody has/wants `/opt' on his system. Here is the doc about the custom *dir variables: | Sometimes the standard directories--even as augmented by Automake-- | are not enough. In particular it is sometimes useful, for clarity, to | install objects in a subdirectory of some predefined directory.

A given prefix (e.g. `zar') is valid if a variable of the | same name with `dir' appended is defined (e.g. `zardir'). | | For instance, until HTML support is part of Automake, you could use | this to install raw HTML documentation: | | htmldir = $(prefix)/html | html_DATA = automake.html -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
