Hello Nicolas,

Nicolas Goaziou <mail@nicolasgoaziou.fr> skribis:

:-)

What I would do in a ‘snippet’ or the origin is:

  1. rm -rf doc

  2. Remove “doc” from the ‘SUBDIRS’ variable of the top-level
     Makefile.in.

That way you won’t need to regenerate the build files.

Does that make sense or am I too naive?

(Besides we should get in touch with the folks at Grenoble University to
see if they would agree to liberating the docs.  Perhaps Debian people
already attempted?)

HTH!

Ludo’.
