Not really. 

When I created my application (gLife) - you need to have db2html when
compiling for it to build the docs - otherwise it will not build them.

But when I create /binary-only/ packages (i.e. RPM packages) I include the
HTML files.

So if you are compiling from source - you should have db2html installed - If
you do not have db2html installed it /should/ continue compilation
'gracefully' (it used to work before (i.e. Ignorable Error)). 

If you get binary packages (debs/RPMS/etc.) it should include the HTML files
