[CMake] Manual page generation

[Laszlo Papp]

This did not work either :((( :

set(ASCIIDOC_MANS
hacky.8
akabei-create-db.8
akabei.conf.5
akabei.3
)

set(A2X_OPTS
-no-xmllint
-d manpage
-f manpage
--xsltproc-opts='-param man.endnotes.list.enabled 0 -param
man.endnotes.are.numbered 0'
)

foreach(manpage $(ASCIIDOC_MANS))
  execute_process(COMMAND ${a2x} ${A2X_OPTS}
--asciidoc-opts="${AKABEI_VERSION_STRING}"
${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/${manpage}.txt
--destination-dir=${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR})
endforeach()

install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/akabei.3.gz DESTINATION
${MAN_INSTALL_DIR}/man3/)
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/akabei.conf.5.gz DESTINATION
${MAN_INSTALL_DIR}/man5/)
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/hacky.8.gz DESTINATION
${MAN_INSTALL_DIR}/man8/)
