RE: problem in building Insight debugger

[Ramaraju G <ramaraju.g@nxp.com>]

Hi Keith,
I have built the latest version of gdb. Facing the following error while debugging with montavista gdbserver.
Any idea on how to fix this ?

Cincidentally enough, I just ran into this on my own, newly installed 
Fedora 11 system. I think this is probably your problem:

WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system.  You should only need it if
          you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
          indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.  The spurious
          call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
          DU, IRIX).  You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
          the `GNU make' package.  Grab either from any GNU archive site.
make[2]: *** [bfd.info] Error 1

As the warning suggests, you must have the texinfo package installed. 
This is required to build a snapshot.

If this isn't the problem you have afterall, then you must send the 
actual error message.
