Suggestion -- have the configure script 'touch' the Info files as the last thing it does if and only if they exist at the time of the 'configure'. Then 'make all' shouldn't update the Info files that are delivered with the distribution, but should do the right thing at all other times without requiring any special tricks in the Makefiles. -- David Masterson David DOT Masterson AT synopsys DOT com Sr. R&D Engineer Synopsys, Inc.
