Make error: "a2x: Command not found" #44

Closed djulien closed 4 years ago

djulien commented 4 years ago

The "make" command fails if a2x is not installed (used for generating xedgewarp man pages). However, a2x is not listed as a dependency.

The solution is to install the asciidocs package before running make:

sudo apt-get install asciidoc

(or equivalent package install command)

You're right, it's not listed because it's only a compile time dependency and not a runtime one. Since we list it in the section on compiling from source we should add it there, though.

Fixed with https://github.com/Airblader/xedgewarp/commit/b82f88c57be4aebbeafe50ad18d5458cbe655f8e. Thanks!

use sudo apt --no-install-recommends install asciidoc so it doesn't install all 700mb worth of unnecessary packages
