No, discussed that already on IRC already. I don't think we can do that with current autotools. It would be nice though to support direct builds from git, but I think it needs more than conditionals. One option here would be to introduce a --disable-docs option. The other option, obviously, is to fix xsltproc, wait for it to be fixed, to do the right thing, which was the plan last time I talked to Koen. :) Kay _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
