No that won't fly - as you won't have TARGET_DIR on the target
system. You could maybe argue for a relative link (../share/terminfo).

The problem is that ln will follow the $TARGET_DIR/usr/lib/terminfo
symlink if it already exists and try to create
$TARGET_DIR/usr/lib/terminfo/terminfo (which is
/usr/share/terminfo/terminfo) - That ofcause isn't allowed. The
solution is to use the -n option.
