Hi, I'm stuck on getting an .info file out of the newlib sources. Also, I never tried using makeinfo before.
I cloned from here: git clone
https://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git
The newlib-cygwin/newlib README says, in part:
Quote:
All the documentation for NEWLIB comes as part of the machine-readable
distribution. The documentation is written in Texinfo format, which is
a documentation system that uses a single source file to produce both
on-line information and a printed manual. You can use one of the Info
formatting commands to create the on-line version of the documentation
and TeX (or `texi2roff') to typeset the printed version.
If you want to format these Info files yourself, you need one of the
Info formatting programs, such as `texinfo-format-buffer' or `makeinfo'.

So I read the info file about makeinfo, and it says you just do:
texi2any --info bison.texinfo
The first .texi file I could find is in newlib-cygwin/newlib/libc
So, from the libc directory I ran
Code:
texi2any --info libc.texi
However, I got errors:
Code:
libc.texi:179: @include: could not find targetdep.tex
libc.texi:176: @xref reference to nonexistent node `Syscalls'
libc.texi:137: @menu reference to nonexistent node `Stdlib'

libc.texi:152: @menu reference to nonexistent node `Syscalls'
libc.texi:154: @menu reference to nonexistent node `Encoding conversions'
libc.texi:155: @menu reference to nonexistent node `Overflow Protection'
It seems I need a path to targetdep.tex - is this somewhere on Slackware 15.0?
Do you need me to post the libc.texi?
thanks for a clue!
