Description

"make install" should install the man page.

Also I would like the tarball to ship with the pdf included, which means make distcheck has to generate it.

The man page should already get installed, provided its in the distribution tarball but it appears the distribution tarball does not have the man page "suricata.1". For this to happen, the system building the distribution needs sphinx installed so it can create the man page.

I'm running the 'make dist' on a system with sphinx installed.

What is it?

On Fedora 24 make dist produces a distribution that gets the man page installed on older versions of CentOS.

Actually I can see that the man page does get installed from the tarball. So that part works.
