Elaborate things break more often then simple things. All I want is a Gimp Manual in pdf form for version 2.8. I can print this out, put it in a ring binder and use it as needed. What I got instead was a package with the guts of the manual in xml. I tried autogen, then ./configure, and then make. Consistently I get these error messages: Making all in quickreference make[1]: Entering directory `/home/safe/Documents/gimp-help-2.8.0/quickreference' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `svg/gimp-keys-ca.svg', needed by `svg'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/safe/Documents/gimp-help-2.8.0/quickreference' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Before I start hacking around eliminating references to the quickreference is there a standard solution to my problem? I don't want to spend days learning about docbook, wonderful though it may be. I have a project under way and I need to look some things in the manual. Anyone have a copy they are willing to share?
