Description Stephen Fisher 2014-12-09 00:43:03 UTC

When building libxcb-1.11 on NetBSD 6.1.5, I receive this error:

make: don't know how to make man/xcb_*. Stop

Compilation succeeds with gmake (gnu make), but autotools programs are supposed to work with standard (in this case, BSD) make in distributed packages.  This line must be non-standard Makefile syntax:

BUILT_MAN_PAGES = man/xcb_*

from src/Makefile.am
