I agree that && is better than ;
but if the etc directory is missing yet needed, something else is
broken. We should fix that problem first.
Why is your build trying to install a directory it hasn't built? Mine
seems to work, unless I "rm -rf etc". It seems the install targets
don't depend on the build targets (which is probably a reasonable
assumption).
