#5655 new defect

make check fails when you do not have docs building/testing requirements (build works)

Reported by: strk Owned by: strk
Priority: medium Milestone: PostGIS 3.6.0
Component: build Version: 3.4.x
Keywords: documentation, testsuite Cc:

Description

In stable-3.4 branch you can ./configure just fine and even "make" but "make check" fails complaining about a missing "xmllint".

I'd prefer for "make check" to just skip testing documentation when documentation cannot be built instead of erroring out.

Summary: make check fails when you do not have xmllint installed → make check fails when you do not have docs building/testing requirements (build works)

Same for xsltproc: 

---- Making check-unit in doc
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/local/src/postgis/postgis-3.4/build/pg14/doc'

configure was unable to find 'xsltproc' which is required
to build the documentation.
Install xsltproc and then re-run configure. Alternatively
refer to online manual:

  http://postgis.net/documentation

Build (make) works: 

---- Making all in doc
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/local/src/postgis/postgis-3.4/build/pg14/doc'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/local/src/postgis/postgis-3.4/build/pg14/doc'
PostGIS was built successfully. Ready to install.
