I seem to be missing autoconf.info.
it used to be in /usr/share/info/autoconf.info.
now I see autoconf-2.1x.info.gz and autoconf-2.5x.info.gz,
neither is mentioned in dir.
what's up?
I dunno. I had thought that the _update_info_dir package would
automagically "do its thing" and cause install-info to be performed on
both of these files.
But apparently that's not happening. I don't really understand the
_update_info_dir magic -- cgf?
As for why there is not plain "autoconf.info", that's an oversight on my
part. One of the two should provide it; my money's on the -2.5x
package. I'll make a note of it, and make sure the next release does
the right thing.
For now, do this:
$ cd /usr/share/info
$ cp autoconf-2.5x.info.gz autoconf.info.gz
$ install-info -D /usr/share/info -i XXXX
where XXX is each of the three info files in turn.
