Hello Eric and Assaf, Eric, thanks for the report. Assaf, thanks for the forward to bug-gettext.
> Making install-html in po > make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/sed-4.4-1.i686/build/po' > make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'install-html'. Stop. Fixed in gettext git: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gettext.git;a=commit;h=e5a008ae54ffa54a5343632f88f10ba2e63c4595 These targets install-{dvi,ps,pdf,html} are mandated by GNU standards, and for more than 12 years Automake reports them as supported: - New targets mandated by GNU Coding Standards: install-dvi install-html install-ps install-pdf And since then, they don't work on packages with a po/ directory. Oh well. > I do see that projects the use gnulib with non-recursive makefiles > include gnulib's 'non-recursive-gnulib-prefix-hack' module > and contain this in 'bootstrap.conf': > > bootstrap_post_import_hook () > { Many more packages use gettext's po/Makefile.in.in than those that use gnulib's 'bootstrap'.
