make install in frysk-core and frysk-gui does not create the dir (usually /usr/local/share/frysk). Automake would do this if the install-*-local target were replaced by the variable nobase_dist_pkgdata_DATA. If maintaining the variable manually were not suitable, Makefile.gen.sh could be adapted to maintain it. I'd be happy to implement this solution, if it is acceptable.
