Mutt 1.4.1 deletes everything in docdir

Description

Package: mutt
Version: 1.4.1i
Severity: normal

-- Please type your report below this line
I am not familiar with mutt hope I can help you anyway. I compiled mutt

| ./configure --prefix=$HOME --with-homespooldir --with-docdir=$HOME/share/doc

But actually I meant $HOME/share/doc/mutt instead. When I noticed that mutt
installed all docs into ~/share/doc I did 'make uninstall' which deleted all
other directories in ~/share/doc not only the files belonging to mutt.

I would like mutt to delete only its own files.

BTW: The mutt default is $(PREFIX)/doc/mutt and not $(PREFIX)/share/doc/mutt
as I thought it should be. I am not an expert but I would like to know if
this is intended.

TIA, Micha
