Description Daniel Macks 2005-12-13 05:03:28 UTC
Version details: 5.7.15

I build gcalctool for distribution under a Debian-ish package manager, so I
'make install DESTDIR=/temp/location' on a machine other than where gcalctool
will be used. That means I must not run 'scrollkeeper-update'. Right now I have
to hack help/*/Makefile to comment it out. Many other gnome packages have a
--disable-scrollkeeper flag (supplied by gnome-doc-utils) to ./configure that
supresses the scrollkeeper-update...it would be helpful if gcalctool supported
this flag as well.
Comment 1 Rich Burridge 2006-03-28 21:00:40 UTC
Bug #336104 (which was recently integrated), adjusts gcalctool
to use gnome-doc-utils. This should mean that this bug is now
fixed too.

(I don't have permission to reopen this bug)

In gcalctool-5.8.9, --disable-scrollkeeper now exists, which correctly causes _ENABLE_SK=false in help/Makefile and disables scrollkeeper-update in the install=doc-omf target there. However, there are still scrollkeeper-update calls in help/$LOCALE/Makefile that are not disabled. They are present in those Makefile.in as part of omf.make via the inclusion of xmldocs.make in Makefile.am. Looks like remnants of the old doc system didn't get removed during the migration to gnome-doc-utils? As I understand gnome-doc-utils, virtually everything is supposed to be handled in the main help/Makefile*, not each lang's own.

Bug #336104 is now closed and can confirm --disable-scrollkeeper works in 5.23.6. Closing.
