That seems like a reasonable thing to do, but to make this happen, I think you have to contact the Free Software Foundation, as they are the ones making these manuals available.

So I'm closing this bug report. ? I don't know what you want the FSF to do here. If you want this, modify doc/*/Makefile.in to generate it. And probably admin/make-manuals and admin/upload-manuals to add the results to the web site. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

That seems like an FSF thing. I think "publishing in .epub" just means adding some rules to the makefile (and maybe adding those files to the website). ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

This is certainly a valid interpretation of the request, but it isn't the only one, especially given the intended use of epub documents. The only person who knows for sure what was the intent is the OP, and I'd like to hear from him before deciding what to do with this issue.

To achieve this, one can call on the document generating server cd /git git clone https://github.com/jlhg/texinfo2epub cd /src/emacs-26.2/doc/emacs /git/texinfo2epub/texinfo2epub.sh emacs.texi emacs.epub Whether these lines are suitable within a build target, is a different question. Please do not concentrate on this question, but rather on what is necessary to list epub under https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/emacs.html . The next quesion would be, how can this be extendend this to other projects, like publishing epub under https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/documentation/ or https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/ .
