Comment 22 for bug 1080376

Hi,

so why is a installed python-sphinx needed during build to get the
manpages installed.
If no python-sphinx is installed during build then no manpages got
installed.
Have look at 'Makefile.in' line 646 ff:
@BUILD_WIN32_FALSE@@HAVE_RECENT_SPHINX_TRUE@am__append_44 = \
@BUILD_WIN32_FALSE@@HAVE_RECENT_SPHINX_TRUE@ man/memaslap.1 \
@BUILD_WIN32_FALSE@@HAVE_RECENT_SPHINX_TRUE@ man/memcapable.1 \
....

if no python-sphinx is installed, then @HAVE_RECENT_SPHINX_TRUE@ will be
replaced with '#' and the result is: no manpages got installed.
If manpages are already 'built', so why is SPHINX needed ?
This should be fixed.
Thanks
Cheers
 Chris
