*> (although groff was installed from a pre-built package (or "bottle")), the only options were the "--prefix" option and "--without-x".*
There used to be three other options as well: --with-gropdf (Enable PDF output support) --with-grohtml (Enable HTML output support (implies --with-gropdf)) --with-gpresent (Install macros for the presentations document format) However, these were removed last October, for uncertain reasons: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/commit/da1975623922cf2d64ced525ddee7e36511d42ab Presumably, the switches were axed because they were wishy-washy. All that --with-gropdf did was add Ghostscript as a dependency, and the post-install notes had this message: *Attempting to use PDF or HTML output support without using --with-gropdf > or --with-grohtml may result in errors* You might want to report this upstream if the switches are still important.
