Follow-up Comment #4, bug #56097 (project octave):
I see that "Build docs" is set to "yes" so that looks correct, it found all
the tools it needed.
Are you on an esoteric version of Linux? The next easy step to try would be
to see if the version built by the distribution has this problem. If not,
then there is something in the configure options or possibly additional
patches that they used to get this to work.
If I had to guess, there is some problem with the info_program() or
makeinfo_program(). I think when you try something like "help sin" it is the
call to the external program which is hanging.
To debug, I would try
dbstop help
help sin
# Octave will drop you in to the debugger within help.m
dbnext
Execute each line of code in help.m by repeatedly using dbnext (just need to
hit return after typing it once) and see where it is hanging.
