You can hand the man(1) command the pathname to the *roff file and it will format it to display it. So the makefile would not have to do anything. But with XML, that isn't the case. I think that the build process might customize some paths shown in man pages. If so, that would be something not be handled by the man command. Likely not a serious problem. _______________________________________________ Swan-dev mailing list Swan-dev@lists.libreswan.org https://lists.libreswan.org/mailman/listinfo/swan-dev
