[gnugo-devel] texinfo compilation doesn't work

[Arend Bayer]

When I tried to compile gnugo 3.1.16, I got error messages from
makeinfo. As I am not at all familiar with GNU info, I do not know why
this happens. Does anyone know what is wrong?
(I have had the same problem with previous versions, but didn't report it
as I had suspected it to be due to some incorrect CVS updates or s.th.
similar. But this time I have downloaded 3.1.16 from scratch from the
.tar.gz file.)

In case it matters, I am using Linux with makeinfo (GNU texinfo 3.12) 1.68.
