Meanwhile I found out that after installing the packackes dvips tetex-dvips
everything works fine on this system. I think these are missing from a RPM dependancy list somewhere. On another system, I still have problems to make the documentation build work. This box has been newly installed with the "minimal install" option, then I only installed necessary packages using yum. So I think something is still missing on the list of dependant RPMs. I still have to find out what packages are needed to make this 'documentation rebuild' stuff work properly.

Scott Barninger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 09.06.2005 >>> Hmm, well the extent of the rpm spec file's involvement with building the docs is: cd doc/latex make cd ../../ It looks to me like a problem with building the docs from the latex source. I do not know enough about that to comment.
