            Bug ID: 30092
           Summary: Build failed due to directory gas/doc was not created
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.40
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gas
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: robinlee.sysu at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

binutils 2.40 failed to build with an error log:

cp: cannot create regular file 'doc/asconfig.texi': No such file or directory

The direct cause is that 'gas/doc' directory was not created in the build
directory.

A quick workaround is to manually 'mkdir gas/doc' before running make.

Also simple code fix:

diff --git a/gas/doc/local.mk b/gas/doc/local.mk
index f611a50913c..07dc5b4527e 100644
--- a/gas/doc/local.mk

        $(AM_V_at)chmod u+w %D%/asconfig.texi

But binutils 2.39 has no this issue.
