The doc/misc/options is used to generate a file describing all
configuration options. Currently, the file contents could differ
based on ./configure option which is kind of suboptimal.
We already removed the "// not configured" from the options.active, and
this time we remove generation of the string altogether.
Make various adjustments necessary to enable "make dist" to build a BIND
source tarball whose contents are complete enough to build binaries, run
unit & system tests, and generate documentation on Unix systems.
Known outstanding issues:
- "make distcheck" does not work yet.
- Tests do not work for out-of-tree source-tarball-based builds.
- Source tarballs are not complete enough for building on Windows.
All of the above will be addressed in due course.
The ARM and the manpages have been converted into Sphinx documentation
format.
Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its
strengths come from the power and straightforwardness of
reStructuredText and its parsing and translating suite, the Docutils.
