Org broke.  Due to make.  Somehow.

I do not need pdf.  I do need info.

Are you saying I need to stop doing this:

  make cleanall;make

And start doing this instead:

  make compile info

?

Will that make org-install and also info?

If so, what happens when makefiles change again and I will start
missing something because I don't have it on the make line?  Plain
make worked before and would make anything new that people would add
to the makefile.

Is there a way to just get it to work the way it did before?

I have no idea of how to do this whatsoever.

Hints appreciated.  All I want is for Org to work as it did before.

Thanks.
