+
+@item docdir
+The directory for installing documentation files (other than Info) for
+this package. By default, it should be
+@file{/usr/local/share/doc/@var{yourpkg}}, but it should be written as
+@file{$(datarootdir)/doc/@var{yourpkg}}. (If you are using Autoconf,
+write it as @samp{@@docdir@@}.) The @var{yourpkg} subdirectory, which
+may include a version number, prevents collisions among files with
+common names, such as @file{README}.
+
+@item infodir
+The directory for installing the Info files for this package. By
+default, it should be @file{/usr/local/share/info}, but it should be
+written as @file{$(datarootdir)/info}. (If you are using Autoconf,
+write it as @samp{@@infodir@@}.) @code{infodir} is separate from
+@code{docdir} for compatibility with existing practice.
+
+@item htmldir
+@itemx dvidir
+@itemx pdfdir
+@itemx psdir
+Directories for installing documentation files in the particular
+format. They should all be set to @code{$(docdir)} by default. (If
+you are using Autoconf, write them as @samp{@@htmldir@@},
+@samp{@@dvidir@@}, etc.) Packages which supply several translations
+of their documentation should install them in
+@samp{$(htmldir)/}@var{ll}, @samp{$(pdfdir)/}@var{ll}, etc. where
+@var{ll} is a locale abbreviation such as @samp{en} or @samp{pt_BR}.
+
+@item libdir
+The directory for object files and libraries of object code. Do not
+install executables here, they probably ought to go in @file{$(libexecdir)}
+instead. The value of @code{libdir} should normally be
+@file{/usr/local/lib}, but write it as @file{$(exec_prefix)/lib}.
+(If you are using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@libdir@@}.)
+
+@item lispdir
+The directory for installing any Emacs Lisp files in this package. By
+default, it should be @file{/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp}, but it
+should be written as @file{$(datarootdir)/emacs/site-lisp}.
+
+If you are using Autoconf, write the default as @samp{@@lispdir@@}.
+In order to make @samp{@@lispdir@@} work, you need the following lines
+in your @file{configure.in} file:
+
+@example
+lispdir='$@{datarootdir@}/emacs/site-lisp'
+AC_SUBST(lispdir)
+@end example
+
+@item localedir
+The directory for installing locale-specific message catalogs for this
+package. By default, it should be @file{/usr/local/share/locale}, but
+it should be written as @file{$(datarootdir)/locale}. (If you are
+using Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@localedir@@}.) This directory
+usually has a subdirectory per locale.
