From what I understand, TeXLive is the new hotness and requires some migration. In doc/prelink.tex, build errors lead me to suggest the following changes: Change \usepackage{fancyheadings} to \usepackage{fancyhdr}: http://us.generation-nt.com/bug-421071-ftbfs-latex-error-file-fancyheadings-sty-not-found-help-164921921.html Change [make|print]glossary to [make|print]nomenclature: http://pleasemakeanote.blogspot.com/2009/02/latex-undefined-control-sequence.html Don't define \ifpdf manually, \usepackage{ifpdf}: http://old.nabble.com/Package-ifpdf-error:-name-clash---%5Cifpdf-is-already-defined-td18730554.html After resolving these issues, I still end up with a failure building the docs - but this time there's no clear error message to give me clues on what needs fixing. My gut feeing is that the migration process from teTeX to TeXLive needs to be done by someone more familiar with it than I. Until that happens (or I suddenly become a TeX guru), I'm currently advising that we keep the workaround in the prelink recipe which prevents documentation from being built. Then I can move on to addressing documentation builds in other packages. Scott -- Scott Garman Embedded Linux Distro Engineer - Yocto Project Intel Open Source Technology Center
