Hello,
If I am working on updating the documentation, it must be time for me to bang my head against some command line hiccup! <looks at wrist> Yup! Right on time.
Following my handy-dandy git cheat sheet, I’ve pulled from github.com/gnucash/gnucash-docs <http://github.com/gnucash/gnucash-docs> and pushed to github.com/sunfish62/gnucash-docs <http://github.com/sunfish62/gnucash-docs>. I then entered all my edits to ch_basics.xml and saved.
Next, I went to the wiki (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Update_Instructions#Validate_Your_Changes <https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Update_Instructions#Validate_Your_Changes>) and found the instructions to “make check” the guide. So, in Terminal, I cd to my build directory for the guide (/Volumes/Media/Development/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/build/guide) and issue “make clean”
This is what I get:
cd .. && /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make am--refresh
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd .. && /bin/sh /Volumes/Media/Development/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/missing aclocal-1.15
cd .. && /bin/sh /Volumes/Media/Development/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/missing automake-1.15 --gnu

configure.ac:6: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'config.guess'
configure.ac:6: error: required file './config.sub' not found

make[1]: *** [../Makefile.in] Error 1
make: *** [../../aclocal.m4] Error 2
I’m not sure why there’s a “missing” in the initial command, and I don’t know where config.guess is supposed to be—and I won’t even try to guess.
I would love to have some guidance.
