Subject: install and info
Date: Wed, 08 Oct 2008 15:20:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <o5wsgj6x6b.fsf@development.richardriley.net> (raw)
There might be an inconsistency in the install process. Well, on my
debian system.
In the Makefile we have
,----
| # Where local software is found
| prefix=/usr/local
|
| # Where local lisp files go.
| lispdir = $(prefix)/share/emacs/site-lisp
|
| # Where info files go.
| infodir = $(prefix)/info
`----
Now I dont pretend to even begin to understand how the info system works
but a "sudo make install-info" does not work because (a) it puts the
file into /usr/local/info and my system appears to expect it in
/usr/local/share/info. In addition the install info command appears to
be broken:
,----
| if [ ! -d /usr/local/info ]; then mkdir -p /usr/local/info; else true; fi ;
| cp -p doc/org /usr/local/info
| install-info --info-file=doc/org --info-dir=/usr/local/info
| Usage: install-info [<options> ...] [--] <filename>
`----
Hopefully someone can shed some light. I think it used to work but am
not sure if I was picking up a local info file before.
