When building from sources form git, if I don't have the groff html driver installed, running configure with the default options gives the following transcript in config.log:
configure:12599: checking whether groff has an html driver
groff: can't find `DESC' file
groff:fatal error: invalid device `html' (try installing the `groff' package?)
configure:12608: result: no
Then when I run make, I get:
No working groff available: cannot create gschem.html
make: ***[gschem.html] Error 1
It would be ideal is the build system could detect if the groff html driver is really required for the build earlier in the process. |
