Sure enough, there is no index.sgml or *.html in the doc/html directrory. I didn't see any messages during ./configure about missing build tools nor any warnings during the build about any files being not built for any reason. I see the same results whether or not I have libxslt already installed in the target prefix.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxslt/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
