Hello,

I'm trying to remove non-free documentation from "giac-xcas" package. 

It involves removing some files from "doc/" subdirectory in source and
updating "Makefile.am". As a consequence, "Makefile.in" has to be
updated accordingly. Pain ensues.

I tried to first remove "configure" script, so as to let GNU build
system call "autoreconf -vfi". It fails due to a missing "libtoolize",
even though "libtool" is in the native inputs. I then used the
workaround implemented in "gnome-keyring" package, which consists in
calling various reconfigure steps manually. The "invoke" command still
fails, though the error is not obvious.

Not updating "Makefile.am" prevents the package from building properly,
too.

Here is the current modified package, in all its glory. I'm not sure
about what to try next, so feedback welcome.
