For example graphics/mng is using post-install target in Makefile to
install documentation and man pages. Installation of that package fails
when using pkgviews because post-install target doesn't create all
directories.

When using pkgviews it seems to be important to create _all_ directories
in *-install targets before trying to install files. For example
graphics/mng installs cleanly after applying this:

 post-install:
        ${INSTALL_DATA_DIR} ${DOCDIR}
+       ${INSTALL_DATA_DIR} ${PREFIX}/man/man3
+       ${INSTALL_DATA_DIR} ${PREFIX}/man/man5
        cd ${WRKSRC}/doc && \
                ${INSTALL_DATA} Plan1.png Plan2.png libmng.txt ${DOCDIR}
        cd ${WRKSRC}/doc/man && \


This was first pkg I found to have this problem but there might be even
more. What would be best practise to fix this for all broken packages?
Maybe INSTALL_* commands could call INSTALL_DATA_DIR before installing
files if directories are missing?
