Should we also be defaulting to "makeinfo --pdf" rather than texi2pdf? I note that we've already started using "texi2html --split=chapter" in spite of the transition document's claim that --split_chapter is still the option for texi2html. I notice we don't have a configure test for the existence of makeinfo, it is simply assumed, so it should be sufficient just to do this: diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index c3debd8..593f01c 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -572,8 +572,8 @@ fi AC_SUBST(YODL_OPTIONS) AC_CHECK_PROGS([PDFETEX], [pdfetex], [: pdfetex]) -AC_CHECK_PROGS([TEXI2PDF], [texi2pdf], []) -AC_CHECK_PROGS([TEXI2HTML], [texi2html], []) +AC_CHECK_PROGS([TEXI2PDF], [texi2pdf], [makeinfo --pdf]) +AC_CHECK_PROGS([TEXI2HTML], [texi2html], [makeinfo --html]) AC_CHECK_PROGS([ANSI2KNR], [ansi2knr], [: ansi2knr]) if test x"$ansi2knr" = xyes && test x"$ANSI2KNR" = x": ansi2knr"; then -- Barton E.
