Subject: [taskjuggler-devel] Minor build issues for taskjuggler 2.01

TaskJuggler developers,

We're currently builidng the 2.01 release in our (very non-standard)
environment and running into minor build issues. If these can be
resolved in future releases, it would be much appreciated.

1. perl

In our environment, we have additional versions of perl installed in
addition to the vendor-supplied (RHAS 3) perl. WHen we invoke
'configure', we have perl set to:

   /ms/dist/perl5/bin/perl5.6 -I<path1> -I<path2>

this invocation picks up the desired perl release and modules.

Doing this works fine for the configure step and the makefiles, except
that the 'PERL' variable in the makefiles is not actually used for the
one program that really needs it, tjx2gantt.

Ideally, this program should go through a pre-processing step, where its
#! line is changed from

   #!/usr/bin/perl

to whatever the PERL variable in the makefile is set to.

2. The documentation doesn't build. The invocation of 'db2html' in the
docs Makefile doesn't work on RHAS 3 - it looks like more recent
versions of the docbook files and/or tools are required.

Would it be possible to ship taskjuggler with the generated HTML pages
in addition to the source XML files? That would reduce the dependency
on the XML tools.

We'll be happy to test newer releases or patches.

Regards,
   Hildo Biersma
