You can work around that by using INSTALL_ROOT. e.g.:


% ./configure --prefix=./plugins
...

% cd themes

% make install
...
cp -f "FreeMono.ttf" "plugins/share/mythtv/"



% mkdir /tmp/plugins

% INSTALL_ROOT=/tmp/ make install
...
cp -f "FreeMono.ttf" "/tmp/plugins/share/mythtv/"




Note: untested under MinGW
