I find it helpful to always check Homebrew's formula file (if there is one) to see how they deal with cases like yours. As you can see in groff.rb <https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/ec2da05/Formula/groff.rb>, there's a patch <https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/ec2da05a0dc0a47727da888239d219bd604b6b7e/Formula/groff.rb#L64-L76> to fix a parallel build. Perhaps it's connected to the problems you were experiencing? A line in the Ruby file points to Savannah ticket #43581 <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?43581>, On 10 January 2018 at 01:29, Larry Kollar <kol...@windstream.net> wrote: > > Robert Marks <robert.ma...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I have twice downloaded 1.22.3 and compiled it, following the INSTALL > > instructions. > > > > Seems to compile correctly. > > Then I install it. > > > > Then try to process a file (which works fine on another Mac Book Air of > > mine). > > I get the following error messages on processing (which fails): > > > > My question is: why don't these files install correctly? > > How can I fix this installation? > > > > Thanks, > > Bob > > > > groff -sGpet -mm ch2 | ps2pdf - ch2.pdf > > > > /usr/local/share/groff/1.22.3/tmac/m.tmac:33: warning: can't find macro > > file `devtag.tmac' > > > > /usr/local/share/groff/1.22.3/tmac/m.tmac:363: warning: can't find macro > > file `mm/locale' > > > > /usr/local/share/groff/1.22.3/tmac/m.tmac:2805: warning: can't find > macro > > file `refer-mm.tmac’ > > I don’t know exactly, but I usually do configure —prefix=/usr so the > install overwrites the existing groff. > Which reminds me… I recently upgraded to High Sierra.
