Qemu-5.1.0 build from source man entry not found
Hello together,
i build qemu-5.1.0 from source on centos 8 withe the following command:
../configure --prefix=/usr --target-list=x86_64-softmmu,x86_64-linux-user
make -j4
make install
The build and the installation finished successfully. But when i try the command
man qemu-system-x86_64
i got the message "No manual entry found". What i do wrong ?
Best regards
Damian
You probably don't have the necessary dependencies to build the manual pages. Since 5.0 we have required Sphinx to be installed to build the docs (see https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/5.0#Build_Dependencies).
Pass --enable-docs to configure if you want to force the docs to be built (and then configure will stop with an error if Sphinx or another required tool is missing); otherwise configure will default to "build docs if possible, skip if required tools are missing".
There is only one shared man-page for all qemu-system-xxx binaries ... have you tried to simply run "man qemu" ?
Hello together,
build with enable-docs and install the required packages now it works with man qemu.
Many thanks for you help
Problem resolved :-)
Best regards
Damian
