Forgot to add manual.tex to the distribution. Done in [1553].

One question, WK: The manual is build if the user does a 'make' after a check-out. Is this intended? I mean, I thougt we agreed to only LaTeX the manal for 'make dist'. ???

@JR: I understood from the Automake info that one should distribute either the target or its sources. Looking again into it, the statement is weaker, and we can distribute the target as well. I'll change the Makefile accordingly.
The critical point here is, and the same applies to #140: 'make dist' should generate everything that we do want to distribute. This implies that whoever does 'make dist' (and 'make distcheck') must have all necessary tools installed. In the documentation part, this is pdflatex with all tools (conTeXT included -- which package actually needs this??), and HEVEA for the HTML doc (which I have disabled for the moment).
The user who doesn't have all those packages will not be able to 'make dist' successfully. Instead of catching all problems by conditionals, as we do now, shouldn't this be detected by configure and printed at the end?
I'd say that this is NOT a blocker for RC1.

OK, the 'make' is usually done for the installation, not by the user for the 'make dist'. I am fine with this. Closing this ticket.
WK, TO, if objecting, please feel free to reopen!!!
Done in [1547]. The manual is built whenever (pdf)latex is available, and installed in the appropriate directories. It is distributed as source, not as ps/pdf, as the Automake manual recommends.
