As a small example for what I tried:

man_src = \
        foo.1.xml \
        bar.1.xml \
        lib.3.cml

man_MANS = $(patsubst %.xml,%,$(man_src))

[..]

And I thought, that man_MANS therefor is foo.1 bar.1 lib.3. But nothing
happens and the Makefile does not show MANS nor install/uninstall
targets. But adding a target

all-local: $(man_MANS)

shows, that man_MANS has the right content.

Yes. But maybe, what I try is just impossible. Is it? If yes or if I
missed an important information, please excuse this entry.
