 Replying to [comment:5 matthieu.mallet@…]:
 > Well, I found out what is wrong. In the "crossbinutils-1.0.tcl" script,
 the post-extract phase deletes the "etc" directory which contains the
 tex2pod script:

 >         file mkdir ${workpath}/build
 >     }

 > If I comment out the "delete ${worksrcpath}/etc" line I get my man pages
 generated. Does anyone know why we remove this etc directory?

 I am guessing it was because the stuff in it is included in a bunch of
 other GNU packages as well, so leaving them there could lead to
 conflicts... I suppose if conflicts are the issue, though, it would make
 more sense to wait until the destroot phase to remove them...
