Package: linuxdoc-tools
Version: upstream/0.9.69

Hello.

I am linuxdoc-tools package maintainer from Gentoo. This is not a bugreport 
about Debian package, but about linuxdoc-tools upstream branch.

linuxdoc-tools builds and installs documentation in the 'install' make target, 
see [0]. This is illogically and simply wrong. Documentation should be built 
in 'build' target and later installed in 'install' target.

Also linuxdoc-tools documentation requires heavy latex stuff to be built. Could 
you please make documentation build optional via configure option?
