23.2; Duplicate entries in Info dir file |
|
Date: |
Sun, 30 Jan 2011 15:37:19 +0100 |
Tags: patch
If Emacs is the first or only package that installs its Info files
into an otherwise empty directory (e.g., in Gentoo Emacs is configured
with --infodir=/usr/share/info/emacs-23 to allow for multiple Emacs
versions), then all entries in the resulting dir file will occur
twice.
The bad Info dir file installed by Emacs 23.2 is attached.
The cause appears to be that the Makefile first copies the pre-made
dir file, but then also calls install-info for each Info file.
Attached patch fixes the problem for me. I suggest that this should be
applied to the emacs-23 branch.
2011-01-30 Ulrich Mueller <address@hidden>
* Makefile.in (install-arch-indep): Don't run install-info if the
pre-made Info dir file is being installed.
This is the file .../info/dir, which contains the
topmost node of the Info hierarchy, called (dir)Top.
The first time you invoke Info you start off looking at this node.
File: dir, Node: Top This is the top of the INFO tree
The Info Directory
******************
The Info Directory is the top-level menu of major Info topics.
Type "d" in Info to return to the Info Directory. Type "q" to exit Info.
Type "?" for a list of Info commands, or "h" to visit an Info tutorial.
Type "m" to choose a menu item--for instance,
"mEmacs<Return>" visits the Emacs manual.
In Emacs Info, you can click mouse button 2 on a menu item
or cross reference to follow it to its target.
Each menu line that starts with a * is a topic you can select with "m".
Every third topic has a red * to help pick the right number to type.
