But those docs seem to be an info file for libgccjit-8-doc, and some manpages and some html docs for libstdc++-8-doc. So perhaps those can be built independently? Maybe the problem is that the rules to build them can't be called independently of the rest of the build, in which case this may require some work to allow calling those separately. That would require some upstream work. > What you could do, is: > > - not running the checks > - not building the hppa64 cross compiler > - not building the nvptx offload compiler > - not bootstrapping the compiler (nostrap) > - not building some frontends > > patches tested with -A, -B and -b would be welcome. Ack. No time atm, but if I find some time I'll see what I can do. Cheers, Emilio
