Looks like there are "issues" with building stuff from CVS without having all of the docbook tools installed. --disable-docs doesn't disable the installation of the documents, it only disables the rules which build them. Hence, attempts to build in the 'doc' directory will fail unless the files already exist. I'd like to make sure the documentation can be installed, but I don't want to make building from tarballs require the docbook tools. I think that means we want to require docbook when building from CVS but not when building from the tarball. Perhaps more hacks to configure.in will be required, although I'm not quite sure what shape they should take. > FWIW, I've got all the redhat docbook stuff: Looks like configure.in checks for docbook2html; if that is in your path, things should build cleanly. Otherwise, the configure script is doing something weird... -keith
