Documentation from source by cron failed

[Martin Schweizer]

Hello 

I dayly cvsup the hole documentation source as described in the handbook. This works as expected. Weekly I want to create the hole source by a cron job. For this I create a script:

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/make -C /usr/doc/ FORMATS='html html-split txt pdf rtf' install clean
exit 0

If I start it at the shell all works well. If I start it by cron I get always such error messages

The messages are every time similar. It breaks alswys at a Ghostscript operation. What do I wrong?
