https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216602 Bug ID: 216602 Summary: The build system requires the bsd compat libraries even if only installing man pages Product: Documentation Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: man-pages Assignee: documentation_man-pages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: pierre.labastie@xxxxxxx Regression: No In version 6.0, Makefile unconditionally includes lib/build-src.mk, which itself unconditionally runs "pkg-config" to search libbsd-overlay. This generates spurious messages if this library is not installed, while this library is not needed if only installing the man pages on the system. Note: I'm one of the linuxfromscratch editors, and we install the man pages early in the process. -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
