For the last few days, I've noticed that incremental builds (on
GNU/Linux) rebuild the Lisp reference manual every time, even if nothing
changed at all. This is a pain since it takes around 15s each time, when
a no-op incremental build should be (close to) instantaneous. Is anyone
else seeing this?
I can confirm this with a fresh checkout and then doing the following:
autoreconf -fi
./configure
make
make
I always see something like the following output:
make actual-all || make advice-on-failure make-target=all exit-status=$?
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/jim/src/emacstest'
make -C lib all
make -C doc/lispref info
make -C doc/lispintro info
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/jim/src/emacstest/doc/lispref'
GEN ../../info/elisp.info
make -C doc/emacs info
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/jim/src/emacstest/doc/lispintro'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'info'.

Yes, I'm seeing this on doing $ make check. I agree it's annoying: it
increases my run time from ~50 seconds to ~75 seconds.

Should be fixed now.

Excellent, thanks for the quick fix!
