May be more trouble than it's worth, however. I just went through that cycle of - remove the DIE=1 and || exit 1 in the gtkdocize parts of autogen.sh - s/automake-1.4/automake/ or any other fixed number in autogen.sh - touch gtk-doc.make - cp ../gtk-doc/gtk-doc.m4 . - add m4_include([gtk-doc.m4]) to configure.in to the various directories of glib, gtk+, pango, atk and I it has all compiled nicely (with the patch below as thai-x.c needs HAVE_X from config.h, and removing AC_CYGWIN AC_EXEEXT from glib's configure.in as this is taken care of by AC_PROG_CC) > (Question for gtk-doc-list ... maybe we should support > ./configure --enable-fake-install in gtk-doc that skips > all the checks for SGML/XML and doesn't actually install the > tools?) That would be an even nicer solution!
