* Alvin Sim <bsd140870@yahoo.co.uk> [20010924 13:27]: writing on the subject 'doc - dont know how to make install?'
| 
| hi...
| 
| i dont know what i have done wrong or where i have missed but i am
| unable to make the docs.
| 
| i cvsup'ed the doc-supfile and cd into /usr/doc and did a
| 
| insoniac:/usr/doc# make -DDOC_LANG=en_US.ISO8859-1 install
| ===> en_US.ISO_8859-1
| make: don't know how to make install. Stop
| *** Error code 2
| 
| Stop in /usr/doc.
| insoniac:/usr/doc#
| 
| the same goes for make install and make all install. same probs. here's
| my make.conf:
| 
| /etc/make.conf
| CFLAGS=         -O -pipe
| CXXFLAGS+= -fmemoize-lookups -fsave-memoized
| COPTFLAGS=      -O -pipe
| NOPROFILE=      true
| COMPAT3X=       yes
| COMPAT4X=       yes
| DOC_LANG=   en_US.ISO_8859-1
| 
| so what did i miss? could someone steer me to the right direction
| please. thanks.

I guess you'll not succeed at all. What are the contents of /usr/doc ?
Is there a file called Makefile in there? If not then you need to go back and 
re-read the HOWTO you were following.
My box doesn't even have /usr/doc ;-)
