invocation

 I build tor on macos using:
 {{{
 git clone https://git.torproject.org/tor.git
 cd tor
 mkdir build-c
 ../configure --disable-asciidoc --with-libevent-dir=/usr/local --with-
 openssl-dir=/usr/local/opt/openssl --enable-lzma --enable-zstd --enable-
 libscrypt CC=clang --enable-gcc-warnings --enable-expensive-hardening
 make distcheck
 }}}

 Which fails with:
 {{{
 checking whether the compiler accepts @warning_flags... yes
 ==================================

 Building Tor has failed since manpages cannot be built.

 You need asciidoc installed to be able to build the manpages.
 To build without manpages, use the --disable-asciidoc argument
 when calling configure.

 ==================================
 make: *** [distcheck] Error 1
 Exit 2
 }}}

 What am I doing wrong?
 Does "make distcheck" support a build directory inside tor/ ?
