Subject: Fwd: PostgreSQL 7.4 documentation packaging

Folks,

Just got this request from Mark Recht, who maintains an RPM package library at 
www.pkgsrc.org.    It seems that we don't have an option for compile for our 
docs which is standard with other Linux tools.    How difficult would this be 
to add?    It would help Mark keep our packages updated.

Like discussed on IRC just a few seconds ago ;-)

From a packaging point of view tt'd be nice if PostgreSQL would have an 
extra
--with-htmldir
option. By default pkgsrc seperates "normal" documentation and HTML 
documentation. The former goes to ${PREFIX}/share/doc/<pkg> the latter to 
${PREFIX}/share/doc/html/<pkg>. Currently, with only --docdir, the sources 
have to be patched to archieve that.

Cheers,
Marc
