Description Florian Schmaus gentoo-dev 2021-09-29 12:21:06 UTC
The ebuild for snapper installs the man pages only if the 'doc' USE flag is enabled. Furthermore, it appears that the 'doc' USE flag is mostly (only?) about installing or not installing the man pages. If so, then I suggest always building snapper with --enable-doc.
Comment 1 Dainius Masiliƫnas 2021-10-07 07:59:09 UTC
That sounds reasonable. I'm not good enough at reading autotools files to figure out what else the flag does, but I think it should be fine to always build with doc.
