I brought this up once before and it was not resolved and I think it will become a headache if it isn't resolved. For a variety of reasons, it is not possible generate and install the handbook and FAQ from either current or stable (2.1) on a 2.0.5 system. In fact, this will cause a make world to fall over. It was suggested that the generation of the docs be postponed to the install phase. This will not work because share/doc is installed before share/sgml and usr.bin/sgmlfmt. Until the processing procedures of sgml files stablizes, which I don't expect it will until after 2.2, I would recommend that usr.bin/sgmlfmt and share/sgml be installed in the tools target. (sgmlfmt is just a perl script, BTW.) This is important because a make world WILL FAIL for anyone anyone upgrading from 2.0.5 or earlier, to 2.1 (or current) by rebuilding from source. Once 2.1 hits the net, I expect a fair amount of mail will come in regarding this problem. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============
