Description Jan Sarenik 2010-12-16 14:24:21 UTC 
/usr/share/doc/bash-3.2/loadables is unusable as it does
not contain other important C header files. Please remove
it from the package altogether.

bash-3.2-24.el5

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cd /usr/share/doc/bash-3.2/loadables
2. make
  
Actual results: # make
gcc -fPIC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSHELL -DRECYCLES_PIDS -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic -I. -I.. -I../.. -I../../lib -I../../builtins -I../../include -I/builddir/build/BUILD/bash-3.2 -I/builddir/build/BUILD/bash-3.2/lib -I/builddir/build/BUILD/bash-3.2/builtins  -c -o print.o print.c
print.c:6:22: error: config.h: No such file or directory
... lots of others ...

Expected results: It would be better if the package did not contain
  these files.

Yep, it make not sense to include these files of they need bash compile-time headers.
