Subject: MAKEINFO variable not honoured
Date: Sat, 01 Jan 2011 13:21:51 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110101.132151.306582047.wl@gnu.org> (raw)

[revno 102734]

For testing purposes, I have installed the current development
version of makeinfo in /usr/local/bin.  Since this isn't ready yet for
production purposes (it's unbearably slow), I configured emacs with

   MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo ./configure

However, during `make bootstrap', this variable isn't honoured since
the sub-Makefiles in the `doc' subdirectory contain lines like this

  MAKEINFO = makeinfo --force -I $(srcdir)

which directly overwrite the MAKEINFO variable.

Below a trivial patch which fixes this.
