Problem generating HTML documentation: No conf.py file.

[Georg-Johann Lay]

Hi, I am trying to make HTML documentation, but I am getting the 
following error:

$ make html
...
Making html in examples
make[2]: Entering directory '.../build/gsl-2.6-mingw32/doc/examples'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'html'.
make[2]: Leaving directory '.../build/gsl-2.6-mingw32/doc/examples'
Error: Config directory doesn't contain a conf.py file.

I configured with:

$ ../../source/gsl-2.6/configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 
--prefix=.../install/gmp-mingw32 --with-gnu-ld --enable-static 
--disable-shared

and also installed sphinx-build.

Can you give me some help to fix this problem?

$builddir/doc/Makefile reads:

EXTRA_DIST = $(man_MANS) $(noinst_DATA) gsl-design.texi gsl-ref.info conf.py
SPHINX_OPTS =
SPHINX_BUILD = sphinx-build
SPHINX_SOURCEDIR = .
SPHINX_BUILDDIR = _build

But there is no conf.py anywhere in $builddir.  I only find conf.py in 
$srcdir/doc. Is this correct?

Thanks, Johann
