You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. You might want to install the Texinfo package: <http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/> The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might want to install GNU make: <http://www.gnu.org/software/make/> Makefile:1357: recipe for target 'rcs.info' failed make[2]: *** [rcs.info] Error 127 and similarily, /tmp/buildd/fftw-2.1.5/missing: line 81: makeinfo: command not found WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system. [...] Makefile:370: recipe for target 'fftw.info' failed make[2]: *** [fftw.info] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory '/tmp/buildd/fftw-2 See https://reproducible.debian.net/rbuild/unstable/amd64/rcs_5.9.4-1.rbuild.log and https://reproducible.debian.net/rbuild/unstable/amd64/fftw_2.1.5-1.rbuild.log for the full log. Strangely enough, when I build rcs in my local pbuilder setup (which like the jenkins.d.n one is based on wheezy currently), the build succeeds. I haven't tried fftw but I assume it will also succeed. (And I assume there are some more packages failing like this for reproducible.d.n.) According to apt-file search, texinfo is the only package directly providing /usr/bin/makeinfo, and neither package has texinfo in its build-depends - what I don't get is why it succeeded in my local pbuilder... At the moment I'm a bit clueless where the bug comes from, help welcome! cheers, Holger [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
