Hi Ralf, I wondered about that, but that use is only in the definition of EXTRA_DIST: EXTRA_DIST = $(man_aux) $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT:%=%.x) help2man which is used only via "distdir". So a dist-related build like "make dist" would use that, but a plain "make" or "make install" should not. > I can write a patch if you like.
