If the sources for e2fsprogs are located in a pathname that contains a
tilde character (which can happen when the sources are unpacked using
"apt-get source" when e2fsprogs has a pre-release test version),
texi2dvi will fail due to a bug (Debian bug #822492: "texinfo:
texi2dvi doesn't protect the ~ character in the second pass"). Work
around this bug by using texi2dvi --clean.

The texi2html utility from the texi2html ceased being developed
upstream in 2011, and upstream has declared it superseded by the
makeinfo utility from the texinfo package.

Fix up the com_err.texinfo file so it will produce a valid printed
output, by cleaning up some errors in the texinfo file, and updating
texinfo.tex to be consistent with the version in the doc subdirectory.
Also add rules so we can generate pdf and ps files from
com_err.texinfo and libext2fs.texinfo.

Unfortunately, texi2html gratuitously changed its behavior of where
its output html files are placed when the -split_chapter is in effect.
(First it was in a subdirectory; then it was in the current directory;
now it's back to putting the output html files in a subdirectory
again.)
Support either way of doing things since the texi2html team seems to
be indecisive...

Some people don't want to see the concise "kernel-style" make output.
This configure option allows build engines that want to see the full
set of commands executed by the makefile to get what they want. Most
people will find this more distracting than useful, unless they need
to debug the Makefiles.
(It is not necessary to rerun configure to enable this verbose make
output temprarily; if a developer wants to do a quick debug of a
directory's makefile, he or she can simply edit the definition of the
$(E) and $(Q) variables in the Makefile; instructions can be found in
the MCONFIG file which is included in at the beginning of every
Makefile.)

In Red Hat bug #481620 Jerry reported that the libext2fs info page
is not accesable via "info libext2fs" but is via "info libext2fs.info"
and suggested that the following change should fix it.
Additional info from Jerry:
The problem is that makeinfo 4.12 interprets the dot in "libext2fs.info"
to be the end of the description portion of the info entry, even though
it hasn't seen the closing parenthesis yet. Making the reference be to
just "libext2fs" works.
