Some folks have had problems compiling Linuxdoc-SGML on Linux systems.
(It's a case of foot-in-mouth disease.)
1. Linux systems generally have GNU flex installed, in which case you need
to edit html-fix/Makefile, and change the two instances of "-ll" to "-lfl".
This applies to other systems where flex is used instead of lex.
2. There is a bug in sgmls-1.1/configure which creeps up if you use bash
or zsh. Change the line:
if test "X$(PREFIX)" != "X/usr/local"
to
if test "X${PREFIX}" != "X/usr/local"
3. You may need to comment out the last three lines in sgmls-1.1/msgcat.h:
nl_catd catopen();
int catclose();
char *catgets();
if you get conflicting prototype errors from nl_types.h when building
the sgmls parser.
4. Also, you need getopt (the program, not the library function) installed,
which is used within the various shell scripts in bin/.
This is available for Linux in
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Misc/util-linux-1.6.tar.gz
If you have any problems getting the system to work (on Linux or
any other platform) please get in touch with me.
Cheers,
