Hello everybody, trying to make a slackbuild script for Slackware 13.0 I encountered a problem.
* Short description: "make install" does not copy the man pages into the destination directory. This applies to postgis 1.4.0 as well as to 1.4.1.SVN trunk. * Long description: I do the following (step by step): 1a) configure --prefix=/usr which runs without any problem, just complaining it is not able to find any XSL-template of the docbook system. Having on mind this could be the reason why, later on, make gives up to do anything with man pages I tried also 1b) configure --prefix=/usr --with-xsldir=/usr/share/xml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.75.1 in which case configure runs without complaints. 2) make runs without any problem 3) make install DESTDIR=/tmp/SBo/package-postgis runs also without complaints, but in the end, there are no man pages in the sub-directories of $(DESTDIR). Moreover, during both runs of "make" the directory with documentation is _never_ entered. * Now the question: is it my mistake, an intentional behavior or a bug? It is not a big problem anyway, within the slackbuild script I can fix the problem easily. On the other hand, it could turn out that such a fix is not the kosher way to go.
