bug#23122: 25.1.50; Makefile target install-info tries to install deleted info files

[Francis Litterio]

The Makefile generated by configuring the latest master branch source
code contains target "install-info" which refers to deleted info files,
causing error messages from /usr/bin/install-info.  Here's the relevant
section of the Makefile (with parts elided for brevity):

install-info: info
        ...
        if [ "`cd ${srcdir}/info && /bin/pwd`" = "$$exp_infodir" ]; then \
          true; \
        else \
           ...
           for elt in ${INFO_NONMISC} $${info_misc}; do \
              ...
              for f in `ls $$elt $$elt-[1-9] $$elt-[1-9][0-9] 2>/dev/null`; do \
               (cd "$${thisdir}"; \
                ${INSTALL_DATA} ${srcdir}/info/$$f "$(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$f"); 
\
                ...
                ${GZIP_PROG} -9n "$(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$f"; \
              done; \
             (cd "$${thisdir}"; \
              ${INSTALL_INFO} --info-dir="$(DESTDIR)${infodir}" 
"$(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$elt"); \
           done; \
        fi

This command near the end:

  ${INSTALL_INFO} --info-dir="$(DESTDIR)${infodir}" 
"$(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$elt")

refers to info file $(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$elt, but that file has been
deleted by this preceding gzip command:

  ${GZIP_PROG} -9n "$(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$f"

because the -n switch tells gzip to delete the file being compressed.
Both of these commands are in a for loop that processes every info file.
This leads to a block of errors in the output of "make install-info" of
this form, with one error for each info file being installed:

  install-info: No such file or directory for /apps/emacs/share/info/emacs.info
  install-info: No such file or directory for /apps/emacs/share/info/eintr.info
  install-info: No such file or directory for /apps/emacs/share/info/elisp.info
  install-info: No such file or directory for 
/apps/emacs/share/info/ada-mode.info
  ...

Oddly, file $(DESTDIR)${infodir}/dir seems to contain references to all
of the installed info files, but that may be because file "dir" was
created that way during my build, because my build output contains this
line:

    GEN      info/dir
