Description

I'm building with ./configure ... --mandir=/usr/share/man but the configure.in overwrites this with own, invalid setting: dnl --------------------------------------------------------------------------- dnl By default mandir is $datarootdir/man which would be dnl /usr/local/share/gdal/man but we want man pages in /usr/local/man. dnl --------------------------------------------------------------------------- mandir='${prefix}/man'

which is invalid directory on FHS compilant system.
