No, it doesn't build. On 20 December 2023 02:51:54 GMT+01:00, nmlibertarian@gmail.com wrote:
But it DOES build !!! Just now did same. Really. Honest 'injun. truly. AND it DOES supply the "docs" package to the main program; gnucash-git. (Which also builds and runs too.)

It is not useful to keep a package that fails to build due to (make)depending on deprecated, unmaintained, broken package(s).

This should remain separate much as the gnucash version release and gnucash-docs version release are separate in the extra repos. FURTHER, it is up to date and does compile and work, as does gnucash-git.

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge gnucash-docs-git [2] into gnucash-git [3]:
Not useful to keep the broken pkgbase=gnucash-docs-git.
It was last changed in 2015, and has been failing to build since at least 2020 due to makedepends=rarian's reported FTBFS that year, which persists to this day.
But no one noticed. gnucash-docs-git has only 2 votes, and 1 comment from maintainer made in 2017.
Extra repo has the latest stable gnucash and gnucash-docs.
If the rolling 'git' docs is needed, it is best to enable it in the main gnucash-git's PKGBUILD. With this merge, it will become possible in the latter to create a split package with the same 'gnucash-docs- git' name.
