On Ubuntu, with head:

 $ sudo make install
 [sudo] password for joey: 
 mkdir -p //usr/local/bin
 install -m 555 vimpager //usr/local/bin/vimpager
 install -m 555 vimcat //usr/local/bin/vimcat
 mkdir -p //usr/local/share/man/man1
 install -m 444 vimpager.1 //usr/local/share/man/man1/vimpager.1
 install: cannot stat ‘vimpager.1’: No such file or directory
 Makefile:110: recipe for target 'install' failed
 make: *** [install] Error 1

I've done a make clean and such.

fix deps in Makefile #115
79284a3 
Fix dependencies in Makefile for #113 (removing generated docs from git)
properly, such that a 'make install' will also rebuild vimpager and
generate the man pages, otherwise it errors out because it can't install
the nonexistant man pages.

Sorry about that, in #113 we did not properly fix the deps in the Makefile, please try master.

make doc generation optional for install #113 #115
8c54bb9 
Make man page generation check for pandoc and display a warning that man
pages will not be generated if it is not available.

Make the install target not error out if the man pages were not
generated, and not create the man directory in that case.

I made the man page generation and installation optional depending on the availability of pandoc.

The next step is to make the vimpager bundling check if the bundled files have changed, for this I'll need to write sha and uuencode scripts and add the shas next to the encoded files in the script, that will be a bit of work.

git pull and then sudo apt-get install pandoc worked for me. I like the man page. :-) Thanks.
