While checking to see that the master PRs I did yesterday to master where not causing problems I noticed something unrelated. Looks like the master archive build has been failing for a long time now. Seems the addition of YAP is broken. It appears there's some documentation files missing:

/home/ubuntu/build/boost/bin.v2/doc/gcc-4.8/debug/auto-index-on/threadapi-pthread/src/boost.auto_index.docbook:65535: element include: XInclude error : could not load

/home/ubuntu/build/boost/bin.v2/doc/gcc-4.8/debug/auto-index-on/threadapi-pthread/home/ubuntu/boost/libs/yap/doc/yap_reference.xml, and no fallback was found

From any of the builds in < https://circleci.com/gh/boostorg/boost/tree/master>.

Daniel James brought this up with me via private email. He seemed to think that there was no problem with the build config per se, but that the failure was because I did not have a develop branch, which has now been added. Following the link above, I don't see a way to trigger a new build, presumably because I am not an admin on boostorg. Is there something I should do at this point, or is there a regular build that I should wait for?

Builds have been happening many times by now.

I believe you. Where can I see that?

The problem has nothing to do with a missing branch as the builds happen in the same branch. The problem is that you have an xinclude in your yap.qbk https://github.com/boostorg/yap/blob/master/doc/yap.qbk#L157 for an xml file that isn't being generated when doing the "boostdoc" target.

Ok, I've moved the explicit dependency from the boostbook section to the xml one. I hope that fixes the problem, but when I did a build locally using yap develop on my local machine with a checkout of the boost superproject's develop, I got a totally different error than the one above. After my changes, the doc build seems to work. I'm going to watch https://circleci.com/gh/boostorg/boost/tree/develop. Is that right, or should I also look somewhere else for doc builds? Zach
