Is is possible to just not generate docs using a compile flag? Seen that before but not sure if it's supported here. I usually only install pips into virtualenv's; not sure if this would work here if I activate the environment before running make.
I wondered the same, especially after I noticed that the mrkd I get from pip3 install mrkd in Devuan/Debian 9 doesn't work with the installed Python 3.5.3.
After some fruitless digging through the Makefile and configure (for something like --no-docs) I gave up and just did:
Code:
sudo echo -e '#!/bin/sh\ntouch $2\nexit 0' > /usr/local/bin/mrkd
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/mrkd
make && sudo make install-program
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/mrkd
make && sudo make install-program
This whole mrkd thing is a unnecessary annoyance IMO.
Since the syntax would be $ mrkd my-file.1.md my-file.1, your shell script just creates an empty file with the correct name so c-lightning is happy about the file's existence and the compilation runs smoothly! I don't use the manpage of it anyway, so that will be fine.
We can connect now, but maybe I'll swap out the drive for a larger one, so in that case it would be better to postpone the process 
I don't mind if your node is offline for a couple of days after we open a channel. We can do whatever you are more comfortable with. Would you like to try opening a dual-funded channel with me? I could contribute at least 1M satoshi to the channel.
) in the worst case, so let's open a channel after that. As for the capacity, 1M is not the amount I'd put on this old & worn out drive either, to be completely honest. Also one reason for swapping to a new SSD..
