Description Martin von Gagern 2013-06-18 00:35:01 UTC
sys-libs/pam-1.1.6-r4 will install a file index.html containing relative links to three other documents, all of which are missing in my install. The tarball seems to contain these, so this appears to be a problem with the build process. It would be nice to get these files installed.

Upon closer inspection, I'd say this is an artefact of the out-of-tree VPATH build we are performing. The install-data-local target of https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/linux-pam.git/tree/doc/sag/Makefile.am does check for the existence of given files without prepending $(srcdir) to these. Likewise for the other documents, mwg and adg.

the makefiles are trying to support locally compiled files as well as files in the source tree, but the logic is indeed partial

should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report!
