I'm thinking of adding Documentation to the defualt make for
gnustep-base again.  If base is not already installed, it will fail
gracefully, but it will print a warning like:

No libxml - processing of autogsdoc files skipped

Will that be too confusing to people?


Yes, in that the warning is inaccurate, which is a Very Bad Thing(tm). A
bad warning is worse than blowing up, because it causes people to try to
fix the wrong thing. People on IRC spent quite some time trying to fix a
non-broken libxml.




I thought so. Here's another try: wrap the autogsdoc.make file with BASE_MAKE_LOADED, so that it instead prints out:

GNUstep-Base not installed - processing of autogsdoc files skipped


How about that?
