    0xtrans does not understand the --with-pic and --disable-shared flags we
1pass it because it is not a library. Instead, we should pass it flags
2that disable features/packages we're not using so they don't get a
3chance to sneak in.

    Here’s a comparison of stdout and stderr of make -j(nproc) V=1 xtrans_built before and after this PR: https://gist.github.com/dongcarl/4ebf6fe9985ebc1508190f75932e4237

    Concept ACK.

    This seems to be in line with recent discussion and pointers from cfields. Will check the flag changes, gbuild and compare build outputs. Also rebooted Travis.

    what is xtrans and what are we using it for? (concept and code review ACK in any case, seems if it’s not using the options it makes no sense to add them)

    ACK 30ea931dee8e4533c4b8efe00693aebb6fbd78fc

    The added flags are mostly documentation related: --disable-docs: Enable building the documentation (default: yes) --without-xmlto: Use xmlto to regenerate documentation (default: auto) --without-fop: Use fop to regenerate documentation (default: auto) --without-xsltproc: Use xsltproc for the transformation of XML documents (default: auto)

    I’d have thought passing --disable-docs would remove the need for the additional flags, however we need the flags to disable the additional checks.

    diff of configure output for master vs this PR:

     0 checking if gcc supports -Werror... yes
 1 checking if gcc supports -Werror=attributes... yes
 2 checking whether make supports nested variables... (cached) yes
 3-checking whether to build documentation... yes
 4-checking for xmlto... no
 5-checking for fop... no
 6-checking for xsltproc... no
 7+checking whether to build documentation... no
 8 checking for X.Org SGML entities >= 1.8... /usr/share/sgml
 9 checking for fchown... yes
10 checking that generated files are newer than configure... done

    We also lose the configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-pic, --disable-shared warning.
