[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #42352] pkg install fails if --disable-docs is given at build time

[Vote 539]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #42352 (project octave):

I also wanted to point out that in addition to "pkg install" failing, it
appears that the "odeset" command is failing as well.

octave:1> options = odeset('RelTol',1e-4,'AbsTol',[1e-4 1e-4 1e-5]);
error: unable to open /usr/local/share/octave/4.0.1-rc1/etc/macros.texi for
reading
error: called from
    __makeinfo__ at line 103 column 5
    __unimplemented__ at line 520 column 9

I am running a version of Octave built directly from VCS sources on the
"stable" branch (r 21090) and configured with the following options:
--disable-docs --disable-readline --disable-gui.

Are there any workarounds for building Octave from VCS without building the
TeX docs but still having "pkg install" and "odeset" work?
