./configure --prefix=/usr make || return 1 make DESTDIR="$pkgdir/" install }
when i try to do makepkg -s it gives ./mkinstalldirs /usr/bin ./mkinstalldirs /usr/man/man1 /bin/install -c bin/mirdir /usr/bin /bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/bin/mirdir': Permission denied make: *** [install] Error 1
