Thanks for your reply.

Is it the below.
  TEXI2DVI doc/interpreter/octave.dvi
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./doc/interpreter/prepare_qhelp.py", line 27, in <module>
    import lxml.html as lh
ImportError: No module named lxml.html
Makefile:27889: recipe for target 'doc/interpreter/octave_interpreter.qch' 
failed
make[2]: *** [doc/interpreter/octave_interpreter.qch] Error 1

I cannot finish make dist.

I continue make anyway and will see the results.
