Hi Ingo, I wanted to get your feedback on another point.
commit aa16fc0fe503e462617b4db2da1e7638bcac77c6
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robin...@gmail.com>
Date: Wed Mar 2 03:22:40 2022 +1100
INSTALL.extra: Update discussion of dependencies.
* stdbool.h is a C99 feature, so call out C99 as a requirement. gnulib
might enable us to build even on C89/C90 systems, though.
* Record the release date for our Perl dependency, long since
end-of-lifed even by ActiveState.
* Update discussion of our Texinfo manual since we no longer have a hard
build-time dependency on 'makeinfo'.
* Tweak wording in uchardet and paper size discussions, including a
Kemper notectomy and Kernighan ditroffectomy.
Building groff from a distribution archive (_not_ from Git), should NOT
require makeinfo(1) anymore.
Can you confirm that this is the case on OpenBSD? One of the reasons I
made this change was to accommodate the *BSDs[1].
Regards,
Branden
