Comment:
Hi there,
Interested novelist here.
> * `--with-doc` configure option removed upstream, builds/installs docs by default
Half-true. Docs are built by the default `make` target, but `install-doc` is still required to install them. This is an Automake convention that I am not thrilled with.
> * `${DESTDIR}/usr/lib` is empty, so no more `libgroff` - although can't find it mentioned in the changelog (which is [a whole novel](https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/groff.git/tree/ChangeLog.123))
It wasn't ever supposed to be there. `libgroff`, like a handful of others in the _groff_ source tree, is internal. It has no published or supported API, it is not documented at all, it is built as a static object, and it is statically linked with the executables that need it. If anyone was ever shipping `libgroff.a`, they were in error.
