I don't object. I've been thinking of adding a PDF version of the manual to the core distribution. Now I've done that. I also added rules for the liboctave docs, though they were never complete and are hopelessly out of date now. | A suggestion for the upstream authors: you might include a rule for building | octave.pdf in doc/Makefile.in, something like this: | | octave.pdf: $(MAIN_TEXINFO) $(SUB_TEXINFO) ../conf.texi | -TEXINPUTS="$(srcdir):$(srcdir)/..:$(TEXINPUTS):"; \ | export TEXINPUTS; \ | texi2pdf $< Thanks, this is what I used. BTW, I think Dirk will tell you that I'm usually fairly responsive and reasonable when it comes to changes like this, so it might be less work for you to simply propose changes in Octave (with patches if you can) and then wait for those changes to appear in the next snapshot. Then you won't have to add and later remove patches from your package. jwe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
