Playing with the spec
So I tried to build the specification from the latest tree, and ran into
the following problems:
1) The makefile tries to copy images/* to the spec directory. The
problem is that the images directory doesn't exist, which causes the
makefile to blow out.
2) The CVS tree has source files and generated files checked into it,
which is a bit "dirty". More seriously, the way the Makefile works,
it blows away the spec directory and recreates it, which means that
the CVS directory disappears. This causes future CVS operations to
blow up until the CVS directory is manually recreated and
repopulated. Suggestion: maybe we shouldn't keep the spec directory
checked into the CVS repository?
3) In the RawHide and RH 6.2beta sgml-tools RPM, the executable
"sgmltools" has been renamed to "sgmltools.v1". So the makefile has
to be manually adjusted if you're using newer sgml-tools RPMs from
RedHat.
