Why is there install man during make ?
« on: March 25, 2008, 02:20:16 AM »

Hi,

I noticed that during an ordinary make there is executed a "make install" in man. This causes a failure when building with MingW under Vista, because install may not be executed without admin permissions. Also, isn't this wrong in the first place ?

Code: [Select]
$ make
make  all-recursive

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/Martin/amulesvn/docs'

This should not happen and does not happen here (MinGW, XP). Strange.

What further information can I provide ?
I've set it up from a clean checkout with autogen.sh, which ran with no problem.
There is a second (probably related) problem. make install (called as admin) runs into an infinite recursion in the man directory.

sturedman, can you please send me (by PM) the Makefile.in and Makefile files from your docs and docs/man directories?

Here it is (attaching to pm didn't work, mail neither).

The Makefiles seem perfectly ok to me, they work here. What version of make are you using? Try running make -d to find out what triggers the install rule. (Be warned: this will produce lots of information.)

It's GNU Make 3.81.

Here's the -d log.

Ah, there is a file named 'INSTALL'. That's probably what is triggering it. Make is switching everything to lowercase for this platform.

Strange, but not unexpected from MSW. I don't really know what we can do about it.

How about renaming 'INSTALL' to 'INSTALL.txt' ? That should fix it.  ;)
