Comment 1 Martyn Russell 2006-03-19 08:39:17 UTC 
I have had this before but thought it was fixed. Perhaps I never got round to committing the patch for it.

If you do make clean in the "help" directory then make install again, it is fine. Not sure why we need to do this thought. Plus it is just the help. You can always do make -k install.
Comment 2 Richard Hult 2006-03-22 07:30:46 UTC 
No, the earlier problem was that scrollkeeper caused an error if you couldn't write to /var, I fixed that. This one is that make clean removes a file that isn't regenerated in all cases (could be a bug in gnome-doc-utils).

Fryderyk, could you try make first and then make install?
Comment 3 Richard Hult 2006-03-22 19:24:10 UTC 
I've committed some changes, could you see if it works better now please?
Comment 4 Richard Hult 2006-04-23 08:01:45 UTC 
make && make install works, and this is needed for all gnome-doc-util packages I've tried with. I'll close this.
