I agree, but I don't think we ever had such dependencies (except maybe temporarily, by mistake). >> I have implemented PostScript output some three or four years ago. >> I have seen no user interest at all in output that does not need >> TeX, for example. > > AFAIK, it has never worked reliably, at least this is the impression > I got after asking on the list. Maybe that's a chicken-and-egg problem. I implemented bare-bones PostScript, 80% of the job (simplistic titles, simplistic page layout, cumbersome font lookup). If noone seems interested, that's where we stop. Before doing the last 20% that takes twice as long and noone will use. Same goes for SVG output and a number of FOO2ly import scripts. > Even then -- I tried to compile the texinfo CVS, which relies on a > brand new automake version which Point taken; you don't need texinfo CVS.
