I tried running make distcheck while preparing the tarball for 4.14.4, but it failed:

And here's the relevant history:

 2032  git status
 2033  git clean -dffx
 2034  ./autogen.sh 
 2035  make dist
 2036  make distcheck

@hallyn , does make distcheck work for you? Can you reproduce this problem?

To be clear, make dist works just fine. It's only distcheck that is problematic.

I followed the steps you described and I get the same result: /bin/sh: 7: cannot create chage.1.xml.out: Permission denied.

Looks like it's mostly fallout from recent changes in the manpage translation handling.

I'll hopefully have a patch in a bit.
