>Description:
security/gnutls3 has an unconditional build dependency on print/texinfo.

I believe makeinfo is only needed if DOCS option is set.

When I comment out textinfo dependency and have DOCS off, I am able to build gnutls just fine (and /usr/local/bin/makefile is not on system).

I also grepped the log; makeinfo doesn't appear
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
1) confirm that makeinfo is not needed for anything other than DOCS support
2) Once confirmed, remove the unnecessary build depends
