2008-01-15 Benny Malengier <benny.malengier@gramps-project.org> * man/Makefile.am: Swedish removed again so it builds again * removed help files of version 2.x, only wiki manual now! * COPYING-DOCS -> help/COPYING-DOCS : refers to old doc, moved * Makefile.am: removed help subdir, and COPYING-DOCS The idea should be that should we add documentation again, it is done in the help dir with separate source packages too for translations In help: 2008-01-15 Benny Malengier <benny.malengier@gramps-project.org> * Removed 2.2 manual, at the moment no manual of gramps is kept in SVN, it can only be found on the wiki. * help/gramps.omf.in: removed * help/gramps.pot: removed * help/Makefile.am: removed svn: r9819
Please read the COPYING file first.
If building from source, also read the INSTALL file (at least through the
"SUPER-SHORT VERSION") before going further.
Requirements
--------------------------------

Documentation
---------------------------------
The User Manual is now maintained on the gramps website,
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=User_manual
We might in the future distribute again a manual via gnome-doc-utils, this has not
been decided yet though.
Building on non-Linux systems: i18n support and GNU make
--------------------------------------------------------
If make fails, use gmake (the name FreeBSD gives to GNU make) instead.
You might need a patch also. FreeBSD has in ports a patch ( /usr/ports/science/gramps/files)
you need to apply to po/Makefile.in.in
