Replying to Xi Ruoyao:

The testsuite fails: https://dev.gnupg.org/T6313

It works in out-of-tree builds. For example by creating a build subdirectory and running ../configure ... there. But actually, gpgme tests are not run anyway because they need a gpgme build tree!

SKIP: Environment variable 'XTEST_GPGME_SRCDIR' not set.  Please point it to a recent GPGME source tree to run the GPGME test suite.

With an out-of-tree build (in a sbudir), the instructions for building gnupg_nochunks.html and gnupg.txt need to be changed: replace doc/gnupg.texi with ../doc/gnupg.texi. But they generate a lot of warnings, so something is missing. OTOH, are those instructions needed?

The correct instruction is:

makeinfo --html --no-split -o doc/gnupg_nochunks.html -I doc ../doc/gnupg.texi
