Thanks. FWIW, the seds I used from gentoo ('adapted' because the
last was for Makefile.am) re their bug 349754 were
sed -i -e '/docs\/faq\/Makefile/d' configure.in &&
sed -i -e '/docs\/tutorial\/Makefile/d' configure.in &&
sed -i -e 's/tutorial faq //' docs/Makefile.in
i.e. drop the docs because they don't build and are unmaintained.

How do you get by with only one graphical browser ? ;-)
Epiphany is less than brilliant [ start rant {
unconfigurable, no sign if anything is happening, tends to
decompress tarballs when downloading them but keeps the .tar.gz name,
doesn't know what to use for pdfs, can't handle ftp (some of this
might be because I lack other gnome infrastructure) } end rant]
BUT it now works well on html5tube (with the extensions) and
critically (for me) it means I've got a graphical browser while I'm
updating firefox - some months that happens all too frequently.

I mostly use xine for video files (mainly from get_iplayer) because
the sound is better (I noticed on a classical music program), or the
browsers. Gstreamer seems to be what lets firefox open .wmv videos.
For sound I prefer audacious. But for the moment I still find totem
worth keeping in my stack.
