Problem installing gstreamer 0.7.1

Hi, I got a little problem with the make install : [...] Making install in docs gmake[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/gstreamer-0.7.1/docs' Making install in faq gmake[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/gstreamer-0.7.1/docs/faq' gmake[3]: Entering directory `/tmp/gstreamer-0.7.1/docs/faq' gmake[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. mkdir -p /usr/local/share/doc/gstreamer-0.7.1/faq cp -pr /usr/local/share/doc/gstreamer-0.7.1/faq cp: missing destination file Try `cp --help' for more information. gmake[3]: *** [install-data-local] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gstreamer-0.7.1/docs/faq' gmake[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gstreamer-0.7.1/docs/faq' gmake[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gstreamer-0.7.1/docs' gmake: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
This problem is present in 0.6.4 as well. docs/htmlinstall.mak has a cp which depends on HTML_DAT being defined. If xmltex is not detected during configure then the XMLTO flags are redefined to be false which causes the html to not be built which causes HTML_DAT to be defined to nothing which finally causes this problem when installing. Fix is to install xmltex packages, use a conditional to take out the install-data-local rule, or do a check if HTML_DAT is empty before doing the cp.
Where can I find xmltex ?
http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=xmltex Is this fixed in CVS?
It's fixed in HEAD.
