I can confirm that it fails if the sgmlspl program is not installed. So, here's what we know: 1. If you don't have docbook-utils installed, you simply have to pass --disable-docs to configure and everything is cool. 2. If you have docbook-utils installed, you must also have the SGMLSpm Perl Module and JadeTeX installed, else the build will fail. 3. Dan came up with a hack that works also. 4. I'd bet that it would be simple to modify configure.[in,ac] (whichever it is) to do a proper docbook check so that the --disable-docs actually works, and also to properly check for *all* the docbook tools before updating the Makefile to build docs. Dan, could you summarize all this (#1 can be left out) in the Note box in the fontconfig instructions when you get a chance? I'm kinda busy with GNOME and want to get it committed this evening. TIA. I will do #4 and send upstream when I'm done with GNOME, unless you want to do it Dan. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.27] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 16:12:00 up 33 days, 8:12, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.02, 0.03 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
