Update of bug #55371 (project octave): Status: None => Works For Me _______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #1: You can already build Octave with MAKEINFO=/path/to/makeinfo. For example export MAKEINFO=/path/to/makeinfo ./configure or ./configure MAKEINFO=/path/to/makeinfo to specify the makeinfo program to use at build time. Does this help address your issue with the makeinfo program not being on PATH? Further, at run time after Octave is built and installed, you can use the 'makeinfo_program' function to set which makeinfo program to use when formatting help strings. For example >> makeinfo_program ('/path/to/makeinfo'); >> help sqrt This can be done in your ~/.octaverc or the global octaverc to make the change effective every time Octave runs. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55371> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
