Can s/o help? I want to build the docs for offline use like described on the start page on github.

Make sure the get externals.sh script is executable

There is no externals.sh script. The Makefile is non-standard. Solution is to use gmake instead of standard make...

Hint: It would be safer and more portable if people would not use bash extensions in shell scripts and not rely on GNU make extensions but use standard make syntax in Makefiles... Yes, someday I'll start a Linux-bashing web site... ;)

@mjollnirpaul could you check again with the "5.0" branch (currently default)? (sorry but don't have freeBSD available right now. Is there something like a canonical FreeBSD virtualbox/vagrant image?)

FWIW, it was not hard to find: Click on "Download FreeBSD" on the web site www.freebsd.org... ;)

You may want to download the 10.2-Release (current production release) and/or the image of 11-current (developer's choice) for any VM you have.

AFAIC these are "bare" OS images, i.e. only the kernel and basic userland. You'll certainly have to install some software like bash etc.

pkg install bash

Good luck!
