make install fails to install patterndb xsds

[algernon]

I recently started to update my Debian packaging, and noticed that when using the tarball release, after a ./configure && make && make install, the xsd files are not installed for some odd reason.

I have not tried building from a git checkout yet.

AFAIR, xsd files are only installed, if --enable-manpages is used for
./configure

Uhm... but those XSD files are not for validating patterndb files, they're not documentation, that's the doc/man/ stuff.

The problem may be somewhere else, because I see no relevant changes under doc since 3.6. I'll update this issue once I know more.

Ok, turns out --enable-manpages fixes my problem, but it still does not feel right, XSDs are not man pages. So I'm leaving this open, in the hopes that in a future version, the flag will only apply to man pages instead of the whole of doc/, as it now seems.

@algernon: you are right, those files are not manpages, this is definitely a bug

👍

Patch that supposedly fixes it is attached. I did some basic testing and it seems to work, but I didn't go to great lengths to verify every scenario. It should work, nevertheless.

Travis build had failed due to some infrastructural issue, so I'm going to rerun the tests.

I tried it: it is worked for me. Thanks!
