When "make install" is run on a QNX system without xsltproc, it doesn't build the manual pages but does try to install them, which fails with the following error message: ./install-sh -c -d /man1 mkdir: /man1: Permission denied make: *** [installdocs] Error 1 I'll attach a patch shortly which fixes this problem.
Created attachment 5108 [details] Do not try to install unbuilt manual pages
I somehow have the feeling that it's not the case anymore, if you don't have xsltproc or if pages are not built then it won't fail. Can you recheck ?
Probably fixed in the waf build. A re-check was requested in 2013, to which there was no reply.
