If you want to produce the documentation (for example, if you changed
some of the Texinfo sources), type this:
make info
When Make finishes, you can install the package:
make install INSTALL='/dev/env/DJDIR/bin/ginstall -c'
make -k install prefix='${DJDIR}' INSTALL='ginstall -c'
The above doesn't install the docs; for that you will need to say
this:
make -k install-info INSTALL='/dev/env/DJDIR/bin/ginstall -c'
make -k install-info prefix='${DJDIR}' INSTALL='ginstall -c'
(The -k switch is required, because some unneeded targets that are
part of the install process fail; -k lets Make run to completion

This will run for a while and should not print anything. Any test
that fails to produce the expected output will cause the diffs between
the expected and the actual output be printed, and in addition will
leave behind a file SOMETHING.tst (where SOMETHING is the name of one
of the tests). You should compare each of the *.tst files with the
corresponding *.out file and convince yourself that the differences do
not indicate a real problem. Examples of differences you can
disregard are changes in the copyright blurb printed by GDB, values of
unitialized variables, addresses of global variables like argv[] and
envp[] (which depend on the size of your environment), etc.
This will run for a while and should not print anything, except the

Note that djcheck.sh only recurses into those of the subdirectories of
the test suite which test features supported by the DJGPP port of GDB.
