  Add the -L and -l options to install.  -L allows an alternative /etc directory
  path to be specified and causes install to search LOPT/group and
  LOPT/master.passwd for group and user names.  If the -l option is also
  specified, install will fallback to system files if the group or user name
  cannot be found in the alternative /etc directory.
Shouldn't it be vice versa? like, fall back to the alternative directory 
if you don't find the gid/uid in the real /etc/*
