Bug Description
The build option to compile a status report is broken. It gives up in an initial copy step becuase /libs/*css no longer exists.
That part should be easy to fix, although I have not looked into it yet.
The bigger question, I think, is: Does anybody use the status stuff? The page referred to from
https:/
"Advanced" area does not even exist and I have never heard of anybody using the "status" tags as a reference for what to do.
So: Should this be fixed, or deleted as a build option?

As far as I have been able to figure out "make status" never could have worked.
I think "make style" should be deleted, as it is only used by "make status", and while it is easy to fix there is no point.
With a fixed "make style", "make status" still fails because no style sheet is specified for the first step, nor included in serverguide.xml. The error:
compilation error: file serverguide/ C/serverguide. xml line 10 element book heetProcess : document is not a stylesheet status/ sg-report. xml" sg-report. xml
xsltParseStyles
warning: failed to load external entity "build/
unable to parse build/status/
make: *** [status] Error 6
I looked at the entire history for serverguide.xml and could not see that there was ever a version where this might have worked.
I think "make status" should just be deleted also. All the status lines in every document are "review" anyhow.
