LilyPond can be very finicky trying to get a clean build. That's why we

Thanks for that advice, though it is way beyond my skill and needs. I
never build anything else than current master, but have tried doing so
even back in .svn-times.
I realize this is not a great answer for a Linux hacker.
I am not a hacker, not a programmer. ;) 25 years ago i - with help - was
a system administrator on a Sun OS 1.4.x system...
I am a bit embarassed that core developers find using their time on
questions I might have answered myself.
Many thanks to James, you and all the many other helping hands.
I've looked briefly through your logs. Are you running a multi-processor
build (make -j3 doc)? If so, that can make it harder to interpret the
logs. It might be well to to a single job build (make doc).
My ancient pc is an AMD Athlon X2, so only -j2 was used. Building docs
locally takes nearly two hours. I prefer it that way because my internet
connection is slow (but reliable).
I'm sorry I don't have a better answer for you at this time.
Well, it made me try again several times :)
It think it worked out the third time after trying various combinations
of autogen.sh, configure, make clean, make distclean and make doc-clean.
Exactly how and why must here be an unanswered question...
Carl
