This has been addressed with the additional meson auto options. But it
seems that these options only control building, not installing, so
there is
no "install-world" aspect yet.
I'm not following - install-world install docs if the docs feature is
available, and not if not?
I had expected that if meson setup enables the 'docs' feature, then
meson compile will build the documentation, which happens, and meson
install will install it, which does not happen.
"meson compile" doesn't seem to build the docs by default ( see
<https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_stage_log.pl?nm=crake&dt=2023-04-06%2018%3A17%3A04&stg=build>), and I'd rather it didn't, building the docs is a separate and optional step for the buildfarm.
You can control this with the "docs" option for meson, as of recently.
