Re: [help-texinfo] Texinfo -> Docbook w/makeinfo 4.8 and 4.8.90

Hello,

What's a bit problematic is the fact that it's not possible to build
texinfo CVS right now. Here are the error message I get:

......

We really need to build the Docbook manual each time the cinelerra
application is built. That's because we'll use that manual into yelp for
a contextual help. The manual and the application really have to be in
sync.

We could ship texinfo CVS with Cinelerra, but that error will appear,
and that's not really good. :-/

I've noticed some bugs in texinfo. Should I report them on
savannah.gnu.org?
