From 92426820f7616caebdf6ba665f749102a670b3d4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Quentin Monnet Date: Wed, 7 Feb 2018 20:27:14 -0800 Subject: tools: bpftool: exit doc Makefile early if rst2man is not available If rst2man is not available on the system, running `make doc` from the bpftool directory fails with an error message. However, it creates empty manual pages (.8 files in this case). A subsequent call to `make doc-install` would then succeed and install those empty man pages on the system. To prevent this, raise a Makefile error and exit immediately if rst2man is not available before generating the pages from the rst documentation.
