Subject: How to build Emacs from source without makeinfo >= 4.13
Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2024 17:02:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALTqLiY2tb+v=ePNgzyNANSAqTdqQozSfo5KNDkQzy2FHciQ9A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I am trying to get a relatively recent version of Emacs built  on Rocky
Linux 8.10.

A make on the emacs source tree obtained from the Git repo gives me:

configure: error: You do not seem to have makeinfo >= 4.13, and your
source tree does not seem to have pre-built manuals in the 'info' directory.
Please install a suitable version of makeinfo.
make: *** [GNUmakefile:110: Makefile] Error 1

I have been trying to find ways of getting around this, but can't find it.

Any suggestion?

Thanks
