When I try to build libvirt, I meet the following error messages:

Hmm, this is an unintended consequence of me removing trailing
whitespace from the docs/*.fig files. It seems that make now
considers the corresponding png files to be out of date. Is it
possible to just update the timestamp on the png files in GIT,
or should I just re-create the pngs and commit them again.

Git only updates timestamps on png files if they change in content from the previous release.

Either we make 'convert' a pre-req to building the package, or we have to rewrite the Makefile rules to gracefully fall back to use 'touch' if 'convert' is not present (similar to how we gracefully fall back if tools to generate html files are not present). I'm in favor of the latter.

Also, if it helps, we can exempt the .fig files from the git whitespace hooks (is this a case of the normal tools for modifying fig files generating the trailing space by default?).
