>Description:
My /usr/share/examples didn't have a directory dhcp or usermgmt, "make install" failed to create the subdirectories and failed. After I created each of these directories by hand the installation proceeded normally.
>How-To-Repeat:
make install a freshly supped -release and watch it fail if /usr/share/examples/dhcp and /usr/share/examples/usermgmt don't exist.
>Fix:
None Provided.
