Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Problems with make distcheck (ethereal-filters.4)

Note: This archive is from the project's previous web site, ethereal.com. This list is no longer active.

Inspired by a discussion on this list, I've done a patch to create a
ethereal-filter.4 manpage that contains the display filters.
Things build fine, but "make distcheck" fails like this:

...
sed -e 's,@''SHELL''@,/bin/sh,g' ../idl2eth.sh > idl2eth.tmp && chmod +x idl2eth.tmp && mv idl2eth.tmp idl2eth
(cd doc ; \
make ../ethereal.1 )
make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jmayer/work/ethereal/ethereal/ethereal-0.9.15/_build/doc'
/usr/bin/pod2man                     \
--center="The Ethereal Network Analyzer" \
--release=0.9.15                         \
 ethereal.pod > ../ethereal.1
Can't open ethereal.pod for reading: No such file or directory
 at /usr/bin/pod2man line 60
make[4]: *** [../ethereal.1] Error 255
make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/jmayer/work/ethereal/ethereal/ethereal-0.9.15/_build/doc'
...

The makefile/configure stuff of the patch is attached. Ideas what I did wrong?
If it's easier, I can check in the whole patch as soon as I've done the changes
to Makefile.nmake and hope someone has an idea before the next release ;-)

 Ciao
       Jörg

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
