The underlined thing is the fix for this problem, Peter should set up that
makefile to say:
NOGENERICINSTDEP := true
before any `include' statements. And at the end of the file, add:
$(HTMLDIR)/%.$(LANGUAGE).html: %.$(LANGUAGE).html
@echo copying $(@F) to $(HTMLDIR)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $(@F) $(HTMLDIR)
ifeq "$(LANGUAGE)" "sv"
@echo making a link $(@D)/$(*F).html -\> $(@F)
@ln -sf $(@F) $(@D)/$(*F).html
endif
I'm not sure if the ifeq is necessary, I don't know if anyone would want to
translate that stuff...

(Just for the record: this is on purpose -- every little makefile includes
Makefile.common, that's why it's got the "common" suffix :)

I wouldn't have anything against this, OTOH.
