Hi,
What I would like to achieve is that the doc/Makefile that is
the result of ./configure contains rules that only try to build
nano.info and nano.html from nano.texi /if/ makeinfo is available,
and only tries to install nano.info and nano.html if /either/ they
already exist or makeinfo is available. I've tried by putting a
HAVE_MAKINFO around the info_TEXINFOS = nano.texi defintion, but
that doesn't work. It results in the message below, and since it
says to contact bug-automake, here is the message:
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/ben/Sources/NANO/doc'

Any suggestions as to how I could achieve the desired relaxed
behavior?
