I ran into the following problem building libtool under cygwin-1.7 (makeinfo from texinfo-4.8a-1):
makeinfo -I doc -I /usr/src/packages/libtool/22/libtool-2.2.7a-10/src/libtool/doc -o /usr/src/packages/libtool/22/libtool-2.2.7a-10/src/libtool/doc/libtool.info /usr/src/packages/libtool/22/libtool-2.2.7a-10/src/libtool/doc/libtool.texi /usr/src/packages/libtool/22/libtool-2.2.7a-10/src/libtool/doc/libtool.texi:5485: @include `PLATFORMS': Too many open files. /usr/src/packages/libtool/22/libtool-2.2.7a-10/src/libtool/doc/libtool.texi:6191: @include `fdl.texi': Too many open files. makeinfo: Removing output file `/usr/src/packages/libtool/22/libtool-2.2.7a-10/src/libtool/doc/libtool.info' due to errors; use --force to preserve. When using the same version of makeinfo under cygwin-1.5, there are no problems. I see that Eric asked about (the same?) problem over on bug-texinfo, but I don't see any resolution. It looks like a cygwin-1.7 problem, not a texinfo problem, to me... http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2009-01/msg00013.html Eric, did anything ever come of this? -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
