install was not originally designed for directory hierarchies, as
evidenced by the fact that you are running into issues when trying to
install both a directory and a regular file by the same install command.
 Maybe you are better off looking for alternatives like 'cp -R'?  Beyond
that, all I can suggest is breaking things into multiple steps; a first
step that installs the directories, and a second step that then installs
files within those directories.
