release tarballs should install manpage even without docbook
edmonds opened this issue · comments
release tarballs currently do not install the nmsgtool(1) manpage if the docbook toolchain (and related dependencies) aren't installed even though they ship with a compiled doc/docbook/nmsgtool.1
file.
possibly commit doc/docbook/nmsgtool.1
(even though it is a generated file) to the repository, so that dist_man_MANS = doc/docbook/nmsgtool.1
can be made into an unconditional rule (and not dependent on BUILD_MAN
).
or possibly come up with a workaround in configure.ac
/ Makefile.am
that installs the nmsgtool.1
file if it's present in the source tree.
