When I checked out from CVS the doc directory (ls'ed with -ltr) looks like -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot 209873 Oct 20 05:35 texinfo.tex -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot 7566 Oct 20 05:35 README.jaxp -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot 192 Oct 20 05:35 Makefile.am -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot60594 Dec 5 06:28 vmintegration.texinfo -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot24483 Dec 14 14:09 Makefile.in -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot71543 Dec 14 21:31 hacking.info -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot62256 Dec 14 21:31 vmintegration.info -rw-r--r--1 inabaroot71514 Dec 14 21:31 hacking.texinfo drwxr-xr-x2 inabaroot 512 Dec 20 23:45 CVS drwxr-xr-x3 inabaroot 512 Dec 20 23:45 api This means the dependency between 'hacking.texinfo' and 'hacking.info' are still needed to be resolved, and the build tries to run texinfo as before. You did your generation of 'hacking.info' too quick ;-) Once I touched 'hacking.info', the build went well. The 'hacking.info-1' or some other files are not the real problem.

Thanks for your effort fix this issue. But, it works fine for 'vmintegration.info', but still 'hacking.info', 'hacking.info-1' and 'hacking.info-2' are missing. The creation date suggests haking.* needs some special treatment. Kiyo ___ kaffe mailing list kaffe@kaffe.org http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe

Even I did not have confidence whether this bug is only for *BSD, or more general. Whenever I found a bug for a port, I compare it with RH8.0 or FC3, and this time generating info files are ok on RH8.0 and I guess it should be *BSD specific. I then have to check why I and Kaz have different result on RH8.0. >Sounds fine to me.
