CVS Build - No Doc

Yesterday I checked out a cvs copy and I:

./configure
make
make install

as usual. The database works, but the installation has no doc
directory. I prefer to read the doc locally. How do I build the doc?

The source tree has a doc directory containing what looks to be the sgml
source, but I apparently missed a step since I have no installed html.

How do I build the doc?

http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/docguide-build.html

That worked.

I couldn't find the Red Hat ES4 package that contains the
'collateindex.pl' script that the build process needs, so I had to go
hunting. I got that Perl script at
http://www.ibiblio.org/godoy/sgml/docbook/howto/collateindex.pl, and
then the HTML doc built properly.

[root@buildfarm ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant)
[root@buildfarm ~]# rpm -qf `which collateindex.pl`
docbook-style-dsssl-1.78-4

Install that RPM.

I had installed that package.

It looks like problem was I didn't './configure' from the top of the
Postgres tree after I installed the docbook tools. The Postgres doc
build wanted to default to /bin/collateindex.pl, but Red Hat's
docbook-style-dsssl package creates /usr/bin/collateindex.pl.

Live and learn. Thanks.

Really? In FC3 it's here:

$ which collateindex.pl
/usr/bin/collateindex.pl
$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/collateindex.pl
docbook-style-dsssl-1.78-4

and I'd have thought you needed that package anyway.
