Bug 249130 – sys-apps/gawk-3.1.6 installs broken GNU Info files

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ulrich Müller 2008-11-27 22:21:13 UTC]

Same problem as in bug 198545, only that in the present case the broken Info files are included in the upstream tarball.

Proposed patch for gawk-3.1.6.ebuild

This is easy to fix: just remove the broken *.info files and the package's build system will recreate them.

if it's a one line change, i'd prefer a patch to the info pages so we dont need to depend on texinfo

Revbump?

[Comment 6 SpanKY 2008-11-28 07:22:48 UTC]

if it's only a minor display issue, then no

[Comment 7 Ulrich Müller 2008-11-28 07:29:56 UTC]

Fixed without revbump.
