octave 2.1.44 compilation error arith.txi

[Nhi.Anh Chu]

I got failure trying to compile octave 2.1.44 in cygwin: (my cygwin and associated gnu-tools are up-to-date)

make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/octave/octave-2.1.44/scripts'
making arith.texi from arith.txi
invalid doc file format
make[3]: *** [arith.texi] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/octave/octave-2.1.44/doc/interpreter'
make[2]: *** [interpreter] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/octave/octave-2.1.44/doc'
make[1]: *** [doc] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/octave/octave-2.1.44'
make: *** [all] Error 2

 

Could someone give me a hand in trying to figure out what happened?

 

Regards,
