            Bug ID: 25491
           Summary: binutils 2.34 tarball requires makeinfo
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.34
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: mbakke at fastmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Hello,

The binutils 2.34 release tarballs are missing the pre-generated manuals,
causing a build failure if "makeinfo" is unavailable:

/tmp/guix-build-binutils-2.34.drv-0/binutils-2.34/missing: line 81: makeinfo:
command not found
WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system.
         You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or
         any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.
         You might want to install the Texinfo package:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/>
         The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of
         using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might
         want to install GNU make:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/make/>
make[3]: *** [Makefile:474: binutils.info] Error 127
make[3]: Leaving directory
'/tmp/guix-build-binutils-2.34.drv-0/binutils-2.34/binutils/doc'
