Version: (using KDE KDE 3.3.1) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc 3.3.4 OS: Linux When kde is compiled with the DO_NOT_COMPILE="doc" environment variable, no doc is installed. kde-i18n-fr complains about this with this message while making install : no english docs found in /usr/kde/3.3/share/doc/HTML/en/common/ make[4]: *** [install-nls] Erreur 1 It works when skipping the "docs" subdir in kde-i18n package. So I think DO_NOT_COMPILE="doc" should skip this directory in kde-i18n
If you shoot yourself in the foot, it's your problem. Sorry
NO ! I didn't shoot myself in my foot ! You offer a possibility not to compile some elements through the DO_NOT_COMPILE variable. If it breaks like this, it's a BUG ! And it's easy to correct ! Trying to install doc just in kde-i18n package when no doc is present and DO_NOT_COMPILE="doc" is meaningless ! so it's a BUG ! So if you don't want to correct this (which is quite simple to correct), and answer me so scornful, KDE is not a good desktop manager to have, and I will probably remove it from my computer and not advice it any more to the new users I convert to linux. I didn't think such an answer could exist among the free software users and developers Bye
