Subject: [Bug 216602] New: The build system requires the bsd compat libraries even if only installing man pages
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2022 16:38:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-216602-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216602
Bug ID: 216602
Summary: The build system requires the bsd compat libraries
even if only installing man pages
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
Assignee: documentation_man-pages@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
Reporter: pierre.labastie@neuf.fr
Regression: No
In version 6.0, Makefile unconditionally includes lib/build-src.mk, which
itself unconditionally runs "pkg-config" to search libbsd-overlay. This
generates spurious messages if this library is not installed, while this
library is not needed if only installing the man pages on the system.
Note: I'm one of the linuxfromscratch editors, and we install the man pages
early in the process.
