Installation of Asciidoctor

[Note]

Note

When building this package, the following message may appear: 

fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

. This is normal, and the package will continue building past this point.

Build the Ruby gem: 

gem build asciidoctor.gemspec

The test suite needs many Ruby gems beyond the scope of BLFS.

Now, as the root user: 

gem install asciidoctor-2.0.26.gem &&
install -vm644 man/asciidoctor.1 /usr/share/man/man1
