             Bug #: 13750
           Summary: Do not build manuals in source directory
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.15
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: manual
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
                CC: roland@gnu.org
    Classification: Unclassified


Building manuals in the source directory made sense when info manuals (and
generated Texinfo sources used to build them, I think) were included in release
tarballs (as still mentioned, inaccurately, in install.texi: "The distribution
already includes the on-line formatted version of the manual, as Info files. 
You can regenerate those with @w{@code{make info}}, but it shouldn't be
necessary.").  Now "make dist" uses "git archive" and these files do not go in
the tarballs.  It would seem appropriate to build all formats of documentation
(other than the special INSTALL and NOTES files) in the build directory only
(removing manual/.gitignore).

This is fixed now in git with:

    Do not build manual in the source directory

    [BZ #13750]

    Build the manual in the build directory and
    not anymore in the source directory.


I'll update install.texi now as well...

I had to remove the last patch and committed now an improved version:

commit 6a4888ffd67163b589e602d62ca6330a608d8b89

    Do not build manual in source dir

    [BZ #13750]
    Do not build manual anymore in the source dir. Also clean up the
    Makefile and remove rules that have been used previously
    when we had a stand-alone Makefile which was obsoleted recently.
