[Nano-devel] building from cvs, Debian Stable, README's

[John M. Gabriele]

I'd previously mentioned that I was having some issue with building
on Debian Stable. Turned out that I was missing the groff package
(I had groff-base though).

Anyhow, now it builds and runs fine. The only warning I saw was
when running autogen.sh:

address@hidden:~/opt/local/src/nano$ ./autogen.sh 
Copying file ABOUT-NLS
Copying file config.rpath
Copying file mkinstalldirs
Copying file po/Makefile.in.in

  or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal

configure.ac:24: installing `./config.guess'
configure.ac:24: installing `./config.sub'
Makefile.am: installing `./INSTALL'
Makefile.am: installing `./COPYING'

I've got autoconf 2.59a-3 here.

By the way, it seems to make sense to have a separate build directory,
so folks can "diff -r" the original source dir with their own without
hearing about all the build files present. So, I added some instructions
about that to the README.CVS file as well as made a few formatting
changes too which you might take or leave. Also added a small note to
README. (see attached patches)
