thank you for correcting my patch.

Yet I still disagree with you in one point:

I think it's better to use $(datadir) instead.  This way, when someone runs
        make datadir=/foo/bar
or even
        make prefix=/foo
(which modifies $(datadir) indirectly), pkgdatadir would be modified too.

The patch attached to this mail intoduces this kind of changes.

Have a nice day,
        Stepan
