Hello,

If I am working on updating the documentation, it must be time for me to bang 
my head against some command line hiccup! <looks at wrist> Yup! Right on time.

Following my handy-dandy git cheat sheet, I’ve pulled from 
github.com/gnucash/gnucash-docs <http://github.com/gnucash/gnucash-docs> and 
pushed to github.com/sunfish62/gnucash-docs 
<http://github.com/sunfish62/gnucash-docs>. I then entered all my edits to 
ch_basics.xml and saved. 

Next, I went to the wiki 
(https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Update_Instructions#Validate_Your_Changes
 
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Update_Instructions#Validate_Your_Changes>)
 and found the instructions to “make check” the guide. So, in Terminal, I cd to 
my build directory for the guide 
(/Volumes/Media/Development/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/build/guide) and issue “make 
clean”

This is what I get:

cd .. && /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make  am--refresh

/Volumes/Media/Development/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/missing aclocal-1.15 
 cd .. && /bin/sh /Volumes/Media/Development/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/missing

I’m not sure why there’s a “missing” in the initial command, and I don’t know 
where config.guess is supposed to be—and I won’t even try to guess.

I would love to have some guidance.
