asciidoc requirement for man pages ?

2009-10-22 Thread Frédéric L . W . Meunier
After compiling all 7.5 libraries, I noticed that in the man3 
directory there were old man pages. All belonged to libXi 
1.2.1.

When you compile 1.3 (from tarballs, not git), do you need xmlto 
AND asciidoc to install the man pages ?

I have xmlto, but not asciidoc, and configure returned

checking for xmlto... /usr/local/bin/xmlto
checking for asciidoc... no
configure: WARNING: xmlto or asciidoc not found - cannot create man pages 
without it

xmlto or asciidoc

And are all man pages moving to it in the near future, or it's 
just libXi ?

The man pages are generated from asciidoc/xmlto, but the generated
pages should be in the tarball. Unfortunately the Makefile prevents
them from being installed if you don't these tools (even though you
don't need them). The culprit is this commit:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libXi/commit/?id=e43d88541e815aa64108a6c5bc3dae5816c822dc

I had this working correctly at some point. I'll try to fix it up so
that it does the right thing either for people building from git or
from tarballs.
