Hello,
make dvi fails on insight-5.2.1 cygnus. After poking around, I found that the problem is when texi2dvi (version 0.51) checks for macro extension in texinfo.tex. To do that it inputs texinfo.tex and sed ont it.
Does it also fail for straight GDB? If it does, can you create a bug
report in http://sources.redhat.com/gd/bugs/
Problem is that it doesn't find texinfo.tex cause, Makefile in insight puts a relative path ../texinfo as in
TEXIDIR=${gdbdir}/../texinfo
but as gdbdir resolve to .
texi2dvi doesn't find texinfo.tex and make stands still in the tex call. Solution (patchy) is to replace by
TEXIDIR=/lib/texmf/tex/texinfo
thanks.
That wouldn't be right. It should be picking up
{gdb,insight}-5.2.1/texinfo/texinfo.tex and not the version from your
installed directory.
