Yeah. And indeed, lentic.el produces a reasonable .info via my own
lentic conversion, to org, to texinfo to info!.
The problem with MELPA specifically is that there is no way to run the
first two of these steps. They might be willing to add an org->texinfo
conversion.
https://github.com/milkypostman/melpa/issues/2251
It doubt that they are going to add support for lentic to convert
itself, though, at least not till all Emacs packages use it (I have
delusions of grandeur).
I'll talk with the melpa folks to see if anything can be done. Failing
that, I'll generate out the documentation, and stick it on a URL
somewhere.
