I wouldn't object to that... The docs haven't changed in decades, literally. But are they really interchangeable? I haven't tried myself to see if a linux build of the docs (help and dtinfo) would work on the BSD's for example. That would be great if it actually worked. I would not need much convincing :) Personally, I never use the docs anyway, so I'd be fine without them altogether. The autotools-conversion branch is getting close to done (no docs building yet though), so being able to shed the doc building would allow us to get that into master sooner as well. The docs need to be converted to a format from this century as well someday. So, if we can demonstrate that the docs are platform agnostic, I think that wold be a big weight taken off of CDE's back. -jon > > > On Thu, 12 Nov 2020 at 10:55, Antonis Tsolomitis > <antonis.tsolomi...@gmail.com <mailto:antonis.tsolomi...@gmail.com>> > wrote: > > > Both stable and git versions have the same problems on both PureOS > (=Debian testing) and Manjaro Linux. > It is not only documentation that does not get build. dtstyle does > not get build either. dthelpview and all doc programs. > But dtstyle why?
