[PATCH 15/23] doc: use asciidoctor to build man pages directly

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

 



There's no need to use xmlto to build the man pages when modern
asciidoctor can do it by itself.

This new mode will be active only when both USE_ASCIIDOCTOR and
USE_ASCIIDOCTOR_MANPAGE are set.
