Description Chris Paulson-Ellis 2002-08-13 08:32:39 UTC 
The fdutils ebuild (5.4.20020222) seems to require tex to be present to build 
the docs. My version of texinfo is 4.2-r5...

make -C doc all
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/fdutils-5.4.20020222/work/fdutils-
5.4/doc'
makeinfo -I . ./fdutils.texi
gcc -march=i686 -O3 -pipe    texi-linearize.c   -o texi-linearize
./texi-linearize . fdutils.texi > Fdutils.texi
texi2dvi Fdutils.texi
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: tex: command not found
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: tex exited with bad status, quitting.
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: see Fdutils.log for errors.
make[1]: *** [Fdutils.dvi] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/fdutils-5.4.20020222/work/fdutils-
5.4/doc'
make: *** [comp-doc] Error 2

Comment 1 Matthew Turk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-13 15:34:22 UTC 
texi2dvi line 387 specifically says that texinfo files need tex.  I'm going to
contact the texinfo maintainer to get tetex added as a dependency.
Comment 2 Matthew Turk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-13 16:24:02 UTC 
Fixed by adding dependency; adding teTeX to texinfo caused too many problems.
Comment 3 Chris Paulson-Ellis 2002-08-14 08:20:59 UTC 
I can verify that this fix worked.

Thanks,
Chris.
