PKGBUILD: trayer

I'm trying to get fvwm-crystal together but when I try to make is package it makes the program just fine but when it goes to "install" I get the following error:

install -d /usr/bin /usr/share/man/man1
install: cannot create directory `/usr/share/man': Permission denied

Looks like it's trying to accutally write to those dirs instead of the fakeroot pkg dir

Here's my PKGBUILD 

# Maintainer:
# Contributor: Tyler Pickett <twpvw5@mizzou.edu>
pkgname=trayer
pkgver=1.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A "docklet" replacement, used for dockable icons in some applications, such as Psi or Gaim."
url="http://fvwm-crystal.berlios.de"
groups=
provides=
depends=('gtk2')
makedepends=()
conflicts=()
replaces=()
backup=()
install=()
source=("http://fvwm-crystal.berlios.de/files/trayer/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz")
md5sums=('9acac948017bf1b5fc50bc1117c9b098')

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg
}

Replace make install by:
make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
