>Organization:
>Environment:
SPARC Solaris 7, plain installation of GCC 2.95.2, GNU make
>Description:
The following results when doing "make info" on a Solaris 7 system where GNU texinfo isn't installed:

hurre:/usr/local/src/gnats/gnats:$ make info  
makeinfo -I. -I./../send-pr -o gnats.info ./gnats.texi
sh: makeinfo: not found
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `gnats.info'
Current working directory /usr/local/src/gnats/gnats-4-fromcvs/gnats
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `do-info'
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Configure should catch this, and I think there should be a new Prerequisites subsection in the documentation listing required tools, such as Texinfo and GNU make.
