We lost a dependency :(
I just did a test build from clean and I get a qemu-nbd.8 in the build directory. I also checked that 'touch qemu-nbd.texi; make -C build V=1' rebuilds the manpage, and it does: [snip other stuff] perl -Ww -- /home/pm215/qemu/scripts/texi2pod.pl -I docs -I /home/pm215/qemu -I . "-DVERSION=3.1.91" /home/pm215/qemu/qemu-nbd.texi qemu-nbd.8.pod && pod2man --utf8 --section=8 --center=" " --release=" " qemu-nbd.8.pod > qemu-nbd.8 [...] You will need sphinx-build in order to build the docs now, and without that we won't build the manpage, but if you have sphinx-build installed then it should work. Can you check that your config-host.mak has BUILD_DOCS=yes ? Did you definitely rerun configure after installing sphinx? thanks -- PMM
