Subj: 	Please help me -- (QAR 02406) INSTDIRS: Directories that don't get made

QAR 02406 was closed after (among other things) certain directoried were added 
for System Accounting level-3 branding. Those directories are not created when 
OSFACCTnnn is installed nor when ./usr/sbin/acct/ is built. 

Someone determained that the variable (make macro) INSTDIRS in the 
./usr/sbin/acct/Makefile isn't in any of the ./src/usr/lib/makefiles/ files. He 
concluded that the variable isn't supported by ode anymore. I tried this on 
every other variable in that makefile and INSTDIRS is the only one missing.

Is this conclusion correct; and, if so, what is the proper alternative to 
INSTDIRS? As I am a novice with makefiles, a cookbook answer would be greatly 
appreciated. Please call me if you have any questions.

	Thanks,

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND:
	/usr/var/adm/ is the home directory of the adm account yet its owner and
	group are root system before and after the OSFACCTnnn kit is installed.
	The kit doesn't (errantly) make four directories at that point which
	are:
		./acct/
		./acct/nite/
		./acct/sum/
		./acct/fiscal/

	I have OSFACCT120 installed on an Alpha running 1.2 Rev10. I found
	OSFACCT130 in the agosmaint backing tree. The ./usr/sbin/acct/Makefile
	has references to the missing directories.
