IIUC, this is fixed in the communication repository.

Closing report.

Thanks for the hint, it was a problem with some function documentation I added earlier. Now fixed with https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/communications/ci/4513ef302c04ba2dec949ba08ed69db38093edc3/

The problem is likely in the intermediate file comms.texi, just from reading the error output. Maybe take a look at its contents and see if you can find why it's not generated correctly. Maybe some variable substitution or file concatenation is off.

With the current communications package from https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/communications/, `build html` fails for me with

Should the manual in docs/comms.texi even be compiled as part of `build html`? If so, is the problem likely to be something in my build system?
