DJ, Dan, Harry -- I nuked my old PCB source dir, and re-downloaded the latest stuff from SourceForge CVS. I did the folowing:
sh autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local/geda make Now I make it by the old .dep problem where the build died, but I have a new error while building the docs: cd "$am__cwd"; \ if /bin/sh /usr/local/src/pcb/missing --run makeinfo -I . \ -o pcb.info pcb.texi; \ then \ rc=0; \ cd .; \ else \ rc=$?; \ cd . && \ $restore $backupdir/* `echo "./pcb.info" | sed 's|[^/]*$||'`; \ fi; \ rm -rf $backupdir; \ exit $rc pcb.texi:4240: @image file `pad.txt' (for text) unreadable: No such file or directory. makeinfo: Removing output file `pcb.info' due to errors; use --force to preserve. make[3]: *** [pcb.info] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/pcb/doc' A quick glance around revealed that pad.txt was indeed not present, and it is not built anywhere either. Any ideas? Maybe it's a ghost of a former version which needs to be banished using yet another old-build-target exorcism? Stuart
