Thanks Chris
your suggestion is correct - GNUSTEP_DOCUMENTATION_MAN is the old gnustep-make
v1 variable - which was replaced by GNUSTEP_DOC_MAN in gnustep-make v2 to fix
the problem that otherwise we had variable names which are too long for some
shells (eg, GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_DOCUMENTATION_MAN).
The old variable is still supported for backwards compatibility; I suppose you
turned on --enable-strict-v2-mode when configuring gnustep-make ? (unless the
problem you're having is that your shell is one of the affected ones and
can't cope with the long variable name ?)
Anyway I applied your fix. It requires gnustep-make v2 but that was already a
requirement for the new gnustep-base releases.
Thanks
