[PATCH 0/2] some fixes for docs Makefile

Posted by Mauro Carvalho Chehab 5 days, 11 hours ago

Hi Jon,

Another small series against build-script branch with fixes.

The first one removes bogus warnings when latex is not installed.
The second one has a small fix to avoid writing *.pyc cache at the
source dir.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab (2):
  tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper: allow skipping sphinx-build step
  docs: Makefile: avoid a warning when using without texlive

I've kind of lost the plot with all of these patches but, in any case,
this one doesn't apply here.  If it's still needed, can I request a
resend?

Thanks,

jon

Sure. I'll rebase what I have, retest and send you on a single
patch series.
