Greetings all;

I have been looking at convert failures while makeing the docs while 
building linuxcnc on the pi. And assumed that if it was building the 
debs, the debs were up to date. Assume, that magic word to assign blame.

Then I noticed, finally that the internal dates in the docs were over 2 
years old. The dependency checker in debhelper wasn't triggeriing on any 
of that.

I posted about the convert failures but did not receive any reply, so 
this morning I fired up synaptic and installed anything that looked like 
it would be involved with doc processing, and got rid of the convert 
failures and generated up to date docs too.

git cloned a new copy from github, fixed my build failures.

So there is a missing dependency somewhere in this list of stuff I 
installed this morning. That list is, from synaptic's history:

Installed the following packages:
2to3 (3.7.3-1)
a2ps (1:4.14-4)
blahtexml (0.9-1.1+b1)
conv-tools (20160905-2)
dbtoepub (0+svn9904-1)
dh-make (2.201802)
docbook2x (0.8.8-17+b1)
doclifter (2.18-1)
dos2unix (7.4.0-1)
enscript (1.6.5.90-3)
gnuhtml2latex (0.4-3)
libplot2c2 (2.6-10)
libtext-unidecode-perl (1.30-1)
libxerces-c3.2 (3.2.2+debian-1+deb10u1)
plotutils (2.6-10)
texinfo (6.5.0.dfsg.1-4+b1)

So somewhere in that list is at least one dependency 
dh_checkdependencies(sp?) does not find.

More on jogaxisget later as I find it, seems halui is involved and I 
wasn't looking there. Oldtimers at work I guess.

>From the looks it would appear that a runtest should be added to 
runtests.

Thanks all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.
