DOCBOOK2X_TEXI in Documentation/Makefile invalid on some distributions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Following the INSTALL doc, I was building git with:

make prefix=/usr/local all doc info

Even after installing docbook2X, I couldn't get past the first DB2TEXI
build step until I discovered that 'docbook2x-texi' is named
'db2x_docbook2texi' in Fedora 21 using the latest upstream docbook2X
0.8.8.

To the "everything" build to complete, I had to make this change:

$ git diff
diff --git a/Documentation/Makefile b/Documentation/Makefile
index cea0e7a..0e6c70a 100644
--- a/Documentation/Makefile
+++ b/Documentation/Makefile
@@ -107,7 +107,7 @@ HTML_REPO = ../../git-htmldocs

 MAKEINFO = makeinfo
 INSTALL_INFO = install-info
-DOCBOOK2X_TEXI = docbook2x-texi
+DOCBOOK2X_TEXI = db2x_docbook2texi
 DBLATEX = dblatex
 ASCIIDOC_DBLATEX_DIR = /etc/asciidoc/dblatex
 ifndef PERL_PATH


I searched the mailing list, but don't see 'db2x_docbook2texi'
mentioned since 2010, so I feel somewhat safe brining it up again.

Not sure if the Makefile should somehow conditionally use one or the
other of these commands. ... Or maybe I should have gone the 'make
configure' route?

Thanks,

Derek
