Summary: libquadmath: Build now depends on makeinfo
Product: gcc
Version: 4.6.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: fortran
AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: burnus@gcc.gnu.org

libquadmath now fails to build if makeinfo isn't installed on the system:
[...]
WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious
call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
the `GNU make' package. Grab either from any GNU archive site.
make[3]: *** [libquadmath.info] Error 1
There is apparently a dependency on libquadmath.info via INFO_DEPS:
INFO_DEPS = libquadmath.info
> In what way is that different from, say, libgomp?
> IIUC makeinfo is required for the development tree.
libgomp doesn't fail to build in this configuration. In fact, all components
used to build in this configuration (except maybe libjava) up to the patch.
