Yes, that's right.

Will do.

Will do

I see.

You mean in FAQ-BUILD.txt?

Will do.

So, the old one (dot -> eps) seems to be used because you want to convert
the font to embeddable one. This is the way you want both .dot files
(and other files to be added in the future) are handled?

Ah, I put the one corresponding to the default target above.
But there was no point doing that. Will fix.

Well, perfbook_aux seems unnecessary if perfbook.bbl is touched just
before perfbook.pdf in runlatex.sh.

contrib.tex and origpub.tex are tricky here. I'll try to explain.

There are loops in dependency around perfbook_flat.tex

perfbook_flat.tex requires an empty qqz.tex and up-to-date
contrib.tex and origpub.tex for texexpand to work properly.

Both contrib.tex and origpub.tex requires perfbook_flat.tex.
contrib.tex also requires up-to-date qqz.tex.

So at first glance, rules for contrib.tex and origpub.tex
can be added, but that requires extraction to be a phony
target.

extraction is prerequisite for perfbook.aux.
If you make it a phony target, the rule for perfbook.aux is
always executed. That means runfirstlatex.run will run even
if no source file is updated.

Does the above explanation answer your question?

I may have missed something here. My original intention was
to remove qqz.tex, contrib.tex and origpub.tex from the
repository. I'd be happy if that can be done without any
regression.

Is it OK to commit the fixes on the makefile-tweaks-v2 branch?

And there is a related question I'd like to ask.

Is the target perfbook_html actively maintained?
When I tried this, I got a plenty of warning messages and the
html files generated under perfbook_html seemed incomplete.
Is there any prerequisite package for this to work?
