Bug ID: 384484
Summary: kdelibs-4.14.36 - please make docbookXML optional
Product: kdelibs
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: sheve...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Hello,
I am trying to compile the latest kdelibs-4.14.36 from source.
Things work ok during configure stage except for one thing:
"-- The following REQUIRED packages have not been found:
* DocBookXML, DocBook XML, <http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2>
Required by the KDE help system to process DocBook XML"
It is possible to get DocBook XML to work but it's annoying on my slackware
system.
KDE help system wants it in order to process DocBook XML - but I already do not
use the KDE help system at all. So this is pointless for me. :)
If I need help, I use google, stackoverflow etc... - I never look for local
documentation and stuff anymore.
So my plea is - please make docbook XML an OPTIONAL dependency; or at the least
provide some specific hint how to disable it.
In the old GNU autoconfigure days, a switch switch as "--disable-docbook" or
"--disable-docbookxml" could be used. I have no idea how to do anything like
that via cmake; neither do I even know how to invoke the configure-options for
cmake either, so I would suggest to also add the cmake switch (it is probably
some all-upcased thingy there).
