The issue is that the autotools= don't like that: they refuse to work if the texi files are not present, wh= ich would be the case for fresh checkouts. I'd prefer this kind of solution= though. What do you mean by =E2=80=9Cthe Autotools refuse=E2=80=9D? :-) Is it tha= t 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 =E2=80=98guix pull=E2=80= =99. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
