Hi Martin,
Thanks a lot for the reply.
`which texi2html` gives me:
/usr/bin/texi2html
`texi2html --version` gives me:
1.70 (a newer version than fink has)
should I try to download fink's texi2html (since it isn't installed),
see if that will fix it? For now I think I could get a small workaround
w/ an alias (/me thinks).
What do you think?
Also, why are docs "mandatory" - I think that if the docs fail to build,
it shouldn't stop compiling altogether. Perhaps there should be a test,
if it fails it could ask "The documentation will fail to build. Do you
want to proceed? [y/N]: ".
I also agree with your later statement, "it should be made compatible
with more recent versions of texi2html." rather than try to work with an
older version.
Thanks again!
- Mick

For some reason it is using the wrong texi2html. What do you get from
"which texi2html" and "texi2html --version"? Fink's texi2html is at
version 1.64 which is older than the one in /usr/bin and any other one
that you might have installed yourself elsewhere, precisely for
reasons like the above breakage. This could also be considered a bug
in the autoconf2.5 package, because it should use "%/bin/texi2html"
instead of a naked "texi2html" (maintainer CCed). Or it should be made
compatible with more recent versions of texi2html.
