Hello!

Nice work! I download gaf once in a fortnight and try to build it. I
tried now. As always I stumbled into problem building _docs_, always
this docs things. In this case it was gsymcheck's doc:
make[3]: Entering directory
`/home/spe/projects/geda/git-src/gaf/gsymcheck/docs'
LC_NUMERIC=C groff -man -T html gsymcheck.1 > gsymcheck.html.tmp \
	  && mv -f gsymcheck.html.tmp gsymcheck.html
groff: can't find `DESC' file
groff:fatal error: invalid device `html'
make[3]: *** [gsymcheck.html] Error 3

What I did on my Ubuntu system was to install the package groff. I
already had the package groff-base installed. Then the build proceeded
without complaining.

I tried to Google it, but find nil. Now this is at least a reference for
future generations. ;)

Anyhow, a way to disable documentation generation would be nice, since
it always seems to bite someones behind.

Thanks and regards,
/Stefan
