Hi, I'm having some problems with bison package. I've followed every single
instruction of that package and the output says that I need a package
called help2man. I decided to enter the internet direction that appears in
the terminal window and I could download it. However I do not know exactly
how to install it. I don't know if that is really the problem because it
could be an error with man-pages, which I just try to reinstall and the
situation is the same.
Is there any way to solve this problem with the installation of bison? I'm
adding to this email the log of bison package when I type the commands of
the book.
I am using Xubuntu 16.04.1 LTS 64-bits as the kernel.
The kernel is not significant here.
I checked my log and do not have the lines:
GEN doc/bison.1
/sources/bison-3.0.4/build-aux/missing: line 81: help2man: command not found
Check the md5sum of the bison tarball. I do not know why doc/bison.1 is
being regenerated. You may want to check that the time for system is
correct in chroot.
The dependencies for doc/bison.1 are doc/bison.help, doc/bison.x, and
configure. Check the time stamps for all those files. They all should be
earlier than doc/bison.1.
I have:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 1034648 2015-01-23 06:54:23.000000000 -0600 configure
-rw-r--r-- 1 5883 2015-01-23 06:55:03.000000000 -0600 doc/bison.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 3934 2015-01-23 06:55:03.000000000 -0600 doc/bison.help
-rw-r--r-- 1 1383 2013-02-14 03:03:46.000000000 -0600 doc/bison.x
That looks like bison.1 and bison.help have the same time. That should be
OK, but you can make sure by doing 'touch doc/bison.1' before make.
