It fails to compile when using "MAKEINFO = @MAKEINFO@": binutils-gdb/missing: 81: makeinfo: not found WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. You might want to install the Texinfo package: <http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/> The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might want to install GNU make: <http://www.gnu.org/software/make/> make[4]: *** [Makefile:507: as.info] Error 127 Current patch will change that to "MAKEINFO = true" diff -ur
