Hi Julien,

Julien Lepiller <julien@lepiller.eu> skribis:

> Another solution would be to find a way to be able to generate them completely, so we don't need to add them to git. The issue is that the autotools don't like that: they refuse to work if the texi files are not present, which would be the case for fresh checkouts. I'd prefer this kind of solution though.

What do you mean by “the Autotools refuse”?  :-)  Is it that our rules
in Makefile.am assume that those .texi file are present, or is there
something else?

Having them in Git, rather than having to wget from
translationproject.org, probably simplifies CI and ‘guix pull’.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
