I've noticed that if you try to build a texi file that has an error
you get a warning from the `missing' program:
cd ../automake \
&& /bin/sh /x2/egcs-stuff/automake/automake/lib/missing --run makeinfo `echo
../automake/automake.texi | sed 's,.*/,,'`
./automake.texi:1675: Next field of node `A Library' not pointed to.
./automake.texi:1821: This node (LIBOBJS) has the bad Prev.
./automake.texi:1726: Prev field of node `Program and Library Variables' not pointed
to.
./automake.texi:1675: This node (A Library) has the bad Next.
makeinfo: Removing output file `/x2/egcs-stuff/automake/automake/automake.info' due to
errors; use --force to preserve.
WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious
call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
the `GNU make' package. Grab either from any GNU archive site.
This is bad because it is confusing.
