But that's hard to test when you have other issues compiling the sources.
I didn't try from cvs code. Isn't groff-current package somehow already boostrapped? Obviously I directly run ./configure pnmtops is tested in configure, so make should not try to run it if it was not found by configure. I agree issues may remain with others programs not found if ./configure didn't test for them. Gilles
