Sorry I ran ?make' command in nut-website/nut... (I still can?t understand
why creating man page is so long, it is much more faster on ubuntu.)
When running ?make? in nut-website, same issue then described previously, even
with Arno patch

The version number is simply a placeholder, indicating that the Git tree has
changes beyond v2.7.2, and is not yet released as v2.7.3. After we start making
changes, you may want to use "git describe --tags" or the Git commit
ID.

If you have internet access while building, your a2x/Docbook toolchain might
still be trying to download additional components (and it is probably not
caching them between runs). The OS X Buildbot slave sets
"ASCIIDOC_VERBOSE=-v" in the environment to print out the exact
commands being invoked (although this only seems to work for the HTML
documentation, rather than the man pages).

Also, a2x accepts an XSLTPROC_OPTS environment variable that you can set to
"--nonet". I suppose we could add that to the makefiles.

Should be possible. Again, I appreciate the effort here, but for a basic OS X
build of NUT, we don't need to build nut-website (yet).

I see that on OS X as well.

Jean, I CC'd Dan, who wrote the build rules for nut-website. Dan, what I
would like to do is split some of the sort pipelines up into intermediate files
so we can debug this better - I tried using gsort on my local copy, and it did
not work the same as the last time I tried it.

Hi Dan

Charles and Jean are having an issue with the nut-website buildrules.
would you have a bit of time to check to help them?

thx and cheers,
Arno

Can you elaborate on how you are using PREFIX versus sPREFIX?

Hi Charles,

Typo on my part (copy pasting diff scripts). 

I tried building libGD in the following directory (sPREFIX is an env name I
use in scripts):
 	sPREFIX=${PWD}/../build/usr

This works, all files in the correct directory.

Next I try building NUT with the following params:

 	sPREFIX=${PWD}/../build/usr
 	configure \
 		--with-gd-includes="-I${sPREFIX}/include/libgd" \
 		--with-gd-libs="-L${sPREFIX}/lib64" \
 		......

This fails to locate LibGD and aborts.

If I build libGD using "sPREFIX=${PWD}/../build" and include this in
the NUT
build 

 		--with-gd-includes="-I${sPREFIX}/include/libgd" \
 		--with-gd-libs="-L${sPREFIX}/lib64" \
 		......

This works. It did this consistently across several openSUSE platforms.

This is a minor annoyance as normally all of the working libs are in
/usr/lib|lib64, not /lib. 


Thanks,

Simon
