Bingo! I removed the .man files by executing 'make maintainer-clean' and rebuilt libXi with 'build.sh', and this time the compilation went fine. If you are curious about the generated output: http://pastebin.com/HP9jWae4 The doubt that remains is if the semantics of 'make distclean' as mandated by automake and chosen by libXi is the most adequate for maintainers - which is clearly not my case - and end-users, like me. I read something concerning this discussion in automake's manual that may be useful, if you don't know by heart: http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/automake/Clean.html So, this is it! And for what it's worth: Tested-by: Fernando Carrijo <[email protected]> Thank you guys! _______________________________________________ xorg-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
