TEXI2DVI = texi2dvi -I libc -I libm Couldn't it be set in each directory individually? But anyway, agreed it is not the best approach, so never mind.
TEXI2DVI = texi2dvi -e Just for the record: -E, not -e. * provide AM_TEXI2FLAGS to apply to both texi2dvi & texi2pdf calls Good idea. - i don't think we need sep AM_TEXI2DVIFLAGS & AM_TEXI2PDFFLAGS, at least for now. if a request comes in, we can support both easily. Agreed. * update the lib/am/texibuild.am .dvi & .pdf rules to output automatic -I paths just like we do for makeinfo Sounds sensible. * i guess delete the MAKEINFO= env var passing to texi2dvi & texi2pdf ? if we don't want it to be used, prob best to throw it away to avoid confusion. Oh, looking again, I see the confusion: texi2dvi does use $MAKEINFO -- not jut for "options" to be passed to it, but as the invocation of the makeinfo program. As in: texi2dvi:1193: makeinfo=${MAKEINFO:-makeinfo} .. texi2dvi:1243: | eval $makeinfo --footnote-style=end -I "$in_dir" $run_mi_includes \ So it is not ignored. --thanks,karl.
