Hey,

in the newly released 0.3.102 exo, there are errors from the generated manpages:

corsac@hidalgo: man --warnings -l ./docs/reference/exo-csource.1 >/dev/null 
<standard input>:169: warning: macro `HTML-TAG' not defined
<standard input>:169: warning: macro `"' not defined
corsac@hidalgo: man --warnings -l ./docs/reference/exo-open.1 >/dev/null
<standard input>:169: warning: macro `HTML-TAG' not defined
<standard input>:169: warning: macro `"' not defined

Re-running make distcheck here, it seems that the generated manpages pass correctly the man --warning test.

Maybe there were problems at generation time? Would it be possible to re-generate the tarballs?

Cheers,

Mm weird, make distcheck passed without problems here. Will look into this.
Comment 3 Yves-Alexis Perez editbugs 2009-08-21 10:16:17 CEST
Not sure make distcheck would have failed. Attached are the diff between the tarball manpages and the myself generated manpages.

No, release tarballs cannot be regenerated easily. (Checksums will change and thus, we'd have to send new mails out and fix the news feeds.) But personally, I don't think this is critical enough to require this. A new bugfix release in a few weeks or so should be enough.
Comment 7 Nick Schermer editbugs 2009-08-21 12:12:35 CEST
No indeed, it's not important enough. But I'd like to fix it (in the package or my system) so it does not happen next time.

Any news?
Comment 9 Yves-Alexis Perez editbugs 2009-10-18 14:59:51 CEST
Yep, 0.3.105 package is OK.
