[PATCH] DocBook: don't compress mandocs

From: Bastian Blank
Date: Fri Aug 08 2008 - 03:47:37 EST


The mandocs target uses gzip to compress the resulting manpages. If this
target runs more than once (using make -jX) at the same time, gzip may
run more then once with the same set of files. It just bails out if it
is not able to find a file because a concurrent run already removed it.

Fix this by removing the gzip call and only work with uncompressed
manpages.
