This is intentional.

Comment by Mark Callaghan [ 2020-09-22 ]

Intentional or not this isn't a good user experience. A bit more elaboration on the cause would be useful if this is to remain as "won't fix". This reproduces in 10.5.5 when configured as:

PI="-DPLUGIN_CONNECT=NO -DPLUGIN_OQGRAPH=NO -DPLUGIN_S3=NO -DPLUGIN_MROONGA=NO -DPLUGIN_SPHINX=NO -DPLUGIN_SPIDER=NO -DPLUGIN_FEDERATED=NO -DPLUGIN_FEDERATEDX=NO -DPLUGIN_ROCKSDB=STATIC"
 
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DWITH_SSL=system -DWITH_ZLIB=bundled -DMYSQL_MAINTAINER_MODE=0 -DENABLED_LOCAL_INFILE=1 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$1 -DWITH_NUMA=ON $PI

These are optional files that are not needed for the successful build. They are not included in any binary packages.

For the developer working on the code it could be helpful to have dbug documentation in a readable format, but these files are not used by the build in any way, shape, or form.
