make world does not install all documents #4
Comments
I expect the reason I didn't include all the documents is that the build state of them was unknown at |
Turns out that SUN/93 is actually written in TeX and not LaTeX so the build doesn't complete. Given that none of the documentation build targets understand TeX files and given the SUN/93 is a document explaining how TeX should be used, it's probably fine to remove it from the build. A compromise may be to adjust the make target to simply install sun93.tex in the documentation tree without attempting to build it. |
@MalcolmCurrie sorted this out with commit e22dc98 reasoning that a document on using TeX is not useful when the standard is to use LaTeX. |
Looking back I had added many documents then in 2008 January there was a kpathsea. Looks like the ball was dropped.Scanned by iCritical. |
Well, I hope everything is sorted out now. There was only that one problem and we are ignoring the XML documents. |
Even though the documents in
docs/
work withbootstrap
,configure
andmake
, they are not part ofmake world
. For examplesgp38.tex
is not built. Looking at the Makefile there are only entries for:but
Makefile.dependencies
lists all the documents properly. I think that the new documents were never added toMakefile.in
. I see that @pwdraper added the cookbooks andsg8
andsg9
in 2f49bb3 but there was no correponding followup commit to 963e493 which was the one that added all the other documents to the dependencies file in 2008.I'm amazed I only just noticed. It came up because I needed an online link to SGP/38.
