Re: Issues with gendocs and images

Hi Akim,

    A few images have been added to the Bison documentation

Sorry to hear it.  I doubt you can reasonably use gendocs in such
circumstances, for all the reasons you have discovered.  Anyway, I have
no good answers and cannot even begin to contemplate the long-standing
issue of distributing manuals images for some time.

    That seems to come from makeinfo that treats as a warning missing
    sources!

The idea was that an Info file can very likely still be useful without
the image.  The further idea was that most people would not bother to
make a .txt version.  Indeed, you are the first person to do so that I
have ever heard of.  I am not especially opposed to making it an error,
though.  Patrice, wdyt?  Maybe it's already an error with tp?

Sorry,
k
