Subject: Why the separate jade calls for pdf and ps output?
Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2010 10:53:56 -0400
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

doc/src/sgml/Makefile asserts

# Regular TeX and pdfTeX have slightly differing requirements, so we
# need to distinguish the path we're taking.

However, diff'ing the results shows that the .tex-pdf and .tex-ps output
files are actually identical.  Would it be reasonable to simplify the
Makefile by eliminating the separate build rules?  I guess we'd have to
make an arbitrary choice between texdvi-output and texpdf-output flags.
