Subject: [PATCH 7/9] build: do not touch roff files after sphinx-build
Date: Sat,  5 Nov 2016 22:18:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2bf3de99793f6de7488f60dcc5482f08bc92d0f4.1478376896.git.jani@nikula.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1478376896.git.jani@nikula.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1478376896.git.jani@nikula.org>

If Sphinx fails to create any of the roff files, having touch create
them hides the errors until someone realizes, possibly much later,
that the resulting files are empty. (Note that gzip doesn't fail on
empty input files.) Sphinx will change the timestamps of any files it
has written anyway.
