Should automake create directories for nested files?

Hi,
It seems as though the following rule, although valid, does not run very
well:
pkgdata_DATA = etc/config.conf
It will not create the etc directory, although it will create pkgdatadir,
therefore
the user will get: No such file or directory when installing config.conf.
This happens under redhat 7.2. Is this the expected behavior? Is there a
workaround?
Thanks!
Daniel Shane
