I have looked at the link and moved a bit upwards in the hierarchy to this page:
https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/all/gnucash-docs[1]
There's a link there to download the debian gnucash-docs source package on the
right hand
side. I have extracted that and found a rules file (presumably that's what's
used to build and
install ?)
Comparing the rules file in there between bullseye (stable) and bookworm
(testing) does
indeed suggest this happens because of the change to cmake.
It looks like the new rules file should explicitly add ghelp as target in the
make rule that also
builds html and pdf. So line 42 may have to become
$(MAKE) -C $(BDIR) ghelp html pdf
Or for the upcoming 4.12
$(MAKE) -C $(BDIR) xdghelp html pdf
Note that html and pdf were never really meant for inclusion in the linux
distribution
packages and not what gnucash has been designed to interact with. If the
packager wants to
they can be included though.
I'll add that due to a recent change in the build scripts the html target is no
longer installed
by default. If this installation is required for the debian package to contain
the html output (it
doesn't look like that) the override_dh_auto_configure line requires an
additional option,
namely
-DWITH_HTML_INSTALL=ON
Final note: the -DWITH_PDF=ON should not be necessary. It's enabled by default
when
building on linux.
An alternative way to fix it would be to *disable* the unwanted targets
(currently that would
be epub via "-DWITH_EPUB=OFF") and then have override_dh_auto_build just build
all
instead of specific targets, like so:
$(MAKE) -C $(BDIR)
Hopefully this extra info can help Dmitry decide on how to fix the gnucash-docs
package on
Debian.
Regards,
Geert
