Hei hei, while searching how to build the new documentation (btw: I could not find out) I stumbled over the broken help. Results from different ptxdist versions:
adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.11.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.11.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.10.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.10.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory ptxdist-2016.09.0: new man page shows up ptxdist-2016.08.0: new man page shows up adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.07.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.07.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.06.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.06.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.05.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.05.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.04.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.04.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.02.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.02.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2016.01.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2016.01.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory adahl@ada ~/src % ptxdist-2015.12.0 help man: /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2015.12.0/man/ptxdist.1.gz: No such file or directory ptxdist-2015.10.0: old plaintext help shows up ptxdist-2015.09.0: old plaintext help shows up ptxdist-2015.08.0: old plaintext help shows up ptxdist-2015.07.0: old plaintext help shows up The file ptxdist.1.gz is only available in the folders of 2016.08.0 and 2016.09.0 and missing in all the others. I usually install like this: * go to ptxdist src folder (git clone) * git co ptxdist-201?-??-? * git clean -dxf * ./autogen.sh * ./configure * make * sudo make install In the current master no man page is created with a simple `make`, I would have to call `make man`, not sure if it gets installed, though, didn't test it.
