Re: 0.8.5 Compile errors

[Robert Messer]

I’m writing to follow-up on a thread from a few months back. I’m getting the exact same error that Daniel Harper reported back in August. The archived thread is here:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/pspp-users/2015-08/msg00020.html

There error seems exactly the same as was reported before. It’s near the end, apparently during the doc build. Here’s the last part:

Since xmllint was reported as a possible issue in August, I checked and it is on my system. Here is that info and some system info:

address@hidden v7.0 pspp-0.8.5]$ xmllint --version

pspp-0.8.4 builds for me without incident.

A possible clue: I am using “./configure —without-cairo”, which Daniel also reported that he was using. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Thanks for any thoughts on this. It isn’t particularly urgent for me, since I can live with 0.8.4.
