Tramp doesn't compile on my RedHat 8.0 system.¥

[Lars Bungum]

Hi there!

Great thing, Tramp, I've been able to set it up on a FreeBSD machine at
work, but on my Redhat 8.0 (GNU Emacs 21.2.1) box at home, I can't get it
to compile.  This is what happenes:

mv $$ tramp.texi
test -d ../info || mkdir ../info
makeinfo --footnote-style=end --no-split -o ../info/tramp tramp.texi
texi2dvi tramp.texi
stdin:148: warning: @menu seen before first @node, creating `Top' node.
stdin:148: warning: perhaps your @top node should be wrapped in @ifnottex
rather than @ifinfo?.
stdin:148: Next field of node `Top' not pointed to.
stdin:603: This node (Connection types) has the bad Prev.
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: line 526: tex: command not found
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: tex exited with bad status, quitting.
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: see tramp.log for errors.
make[1]: *** [tramp.dvi] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/tramp-2.0.30/texi'
make: *** [all] Error 2
address@hidden tramp-2.0.30]# tex2dvi
bash: tex2dvi: command not found
address@hidden tramp-2.0.30]# texi2dvi
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: Missing file arguments.
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: Try `--help' for more information.

What I tried was to omit this section in the Makefile, and then it would
compile, but the version I got out of it never got passed the "sending
mime-encoding" part of the session negotiations.

Does anyone have a tip for me?  Thanks.
