I see that the new "make install" installs a number of text files in
<prefix>/share/doc/pcre, including AUTHORS, LICENCE, etc. That seems
fair enough, though is it normal to install the building documentation
such as README and INSTALL? Those aren't user documentation.
It also includes NON-UNIX-USE, which is all about building in
non-Autotools environments where "make install" can't be used. I'm not
at all sure that it's right to install it with "make install". Another
file I'm unhappy with is "perltest.txt", which described the Perl
testing script perltest.pl, which itself is *not* installed.
I think those two files should be removed from those that are installed,
and I wonder about README and INSTALL.
Views?
