Description Michael Goodwin 2018-06-21 20:41:51 UTC 
# install -o root -g root -D -m 755 -t /etc/nonexisting/directories script.sh
install: can't create '/etc/nonexisting/directories': No such file or directory


It's supposed to create each directory that doesn't exist, so this is definitely a bug. I confirmed that install from coreutils works as intended with the same command.
