I was guessing that the OP had a very constraied system where you would not need it, on any general purpose system not installing documentation is crippling to users, since they will not have any means of learning what the program does. A more general solution for skipping installation of documentation, would be to modify automake, so that there is a install-without-docs target; though I am not very fond of that. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
