Hello,

(This came up in 878r9p1ntd.fsf@bernoul.li, on emacs-devel, but it
seems it fell through the cracks.)

If a section only has subsections but no content of its own, then
ox-texinfo no longer generates the section's menu (listing the
subsections).  And if the section additionally is part of an appendix,
then the subsections now use @subsection instead of @appendixsubsec.

I looked at the history of org and ox-texinfo.el in particular, but
could not find any code change that would explain that change in
behavior.  Org 9.6.8 still works as expected.

I thought I fixed this in
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=dbf415b84

... as I said in https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/87il8sv6r2.fsf@localhost/

Are you saying that the problem is still present on the latest main?

This was an unrelated bug that I found while desperately (but
unsuccessfully) trying to find a possible cause of the original issue.
I don't remember what the effect of this secondary (and fixed) issue was
in practice; just that I noticed that this (now reverted) change, was
not correct.

Yes, I can still reproduce the "menus are missing" and "type of
subsections in appendix changed" issues with the provided test file.

     Cheers,
     Jonas

That was a subtle bug.
Fixed, on main.
