| This package contains the GNU Bison parser generator. |
| |
| * Installation |
| ** Build |
| See the file INSTALL for generic compilation and installation |
| instructions. |
| |
| Bison requires GNU m4 1.4.6 or later. See: |
| |
| ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.6.tar.gz |
| |
| ** Internationalization |
| Bison supports two catalogues: one for Bison itself (i.e., for the |
| maintainer-side parser generation), and one for the generated parsers |
| (i.e., for the user-side parser execution). The requirements between |
| both differ: bison needs ngettext, the generated parsers do not. To |
| simplify the build system, neither are installed if ngettext is not |
| supported, even if generated parsers could have been localized. See |
| http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-08/msg00006.html for |
| more details. |
| |
| * Questions |
| See the section FAQ in the documentation (doc/bison.info) for |
| frequently asked questions. The documentation is also available in |
| PDF and HTML, provided you have a recent version of Texinfo installed: |
| run "make pdf" or "make html". |
| |
| If you have questions about using Bison and the documentation does |
| not answer them, please send mail to <help-bison@gnu.org>. |
| |
| * Bug reports |
| Please send bug reports to <bug-bison@gnu.org>. Please include the |
| version number from `bison --version', and a complete, self-contained |
| test case in each bug report. |

| For any copyright year range specified as YYYY-ZZZZ in this package, |
| note that the range specifies every single year in that closed interval. |
