Dear Maintainer,

Quoth install(1):
-- >8 --
        -v, --verbose
                         print the name of each directory as it is created
-- >8 --

Compare:
-- >8 --
$ install -v $(command -v install) .
'/bin/install' -> './install'

Yes I already fixed that upstream actually as part of:
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/commit/d899f9e33

  $ src/ginstall --help | grep -- --verbose
  -v, --verbose       print the name of each created file or directory

cheers,
Pádraig
