Development code requires py-docutils to build. This dependency should be removed for users building from a source tarball.

Maybe disable the rules to build the man pages if rst2man isn't found?

Should add a
--with-docsflag toconfigure, but I’m not even sure why these two doc targets are part of thealltarget. Again, I think they’re inclueded by default because they use theMANmacros which I don’t beleive can be altered without rewriting their install macros too. -

Add a warning at least. How would you know something didn’t build because of a missing tool without any warning? See my comment elsewhere regarding the build targets and rebuilding.

man_MANS also needs to be changed to dist_man_MANS for dist to work properly.

Commit 1af2eea resolves every other target build dependencies, but doesn’t address this issue. As man pages aren’t considered sources in automake, the normal ways to fix this doesn’t apply. I’m not sure how to do this without manually handling man pages rather than letting automake do it for us.
