Well have managed to get the build system to fully configure/compile under Cygwin on Windows so I would have thought it should not be too hard for many others - especially on a UNIX variant. :)) However it would be nice if the configure process could detect the presence or absence of the required doc tools and alter behaviour accordingly. In the past I have resorted to editing the makefile in the doc dir so that it does nothing to get around these problems. YMMV Alex
