For example, vm.info (from app-emacs/vm-8.0.5.504) now starts as follows: | INFO-DIR-SECTION Emacs | START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY | This is vm.info, produced by makeinfo version 4.11 from vm.texinfo. | | * VM: (vm). A mail reader. | END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY | This file documents the VM mail reader. while with texinfo-4.8-r5 it was: | This is vm.info, produced by makeinfo version 4.8 from vm.texinfo. | | INFO-DIR-SECTION Emacs | START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY | * VM: (vm). A mail reader. | END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY | This file documents the VM mail reader. install-info then includes it in the "dir" file, and info will finally display the following: * VM: (vm). A mail reader. This is vm.info, produced by makeinfo version 4.11 from vm.texinfo. ulm@gentoo.org 2007-11-09 10:53:01 0000 Created an attachment (id=135561) Patch for makeinfo/cmds.c from upstream CVS This should fix it. vapier@gentoo.org 2007-11-12 07:25:23 0000 thanks, added to 4.11-r1 135561 2007-11-09 10:53 0000 Patch for makeinfo/cmds.c from upstream CVS texinfo-4.11-dircategory-headers.patch text/plain LS0tIHRleGluZm8vbWFrZWluZm8vY21kcy5jCTIwMDcvMDkvMjYgMjA6NTM6MzkJMS43NgorKysg dGV4aW5mby9tYWtlaW5mby9jbWRzLmMJMjAwNy8xMC8xMyAyMzo0NDozNAkxLjc3CkBAIC0xNjMx LDEwICsxNjMxLDE0IEBACiAKICAgICAgIGlmICghbm9faGVhZGVycyAmJiAhaHRtbCkKICAgICAg ICAgeworICAgICAgICAgIC8qIHVzZSBhZGRfKiBpbnN0ZWFkIG9mIGluc2VydF8qIGJlY2F1c2Ug b3RoZXJ3aXNlIHRoZQorICAgICAgICAgICAgIGZpbGUgaGVhZGVyICgiVGhpcyBpcyAuLi4iKSB3 aWxsIGVuZCB1cCBpbnNpZGUgdGhlCisgICAgICAgICAgICAgZGlyIHNlY3Rpb24gbWFya2Vycy4g ICovCiAgICAgICAgICAga2lsbF9zZWxmX2luZGVudCAoLTEpOyAvKiBtYWtlIHN1cmUgdGhlcmUn cyBubyBpbmRlbnRhdGlvbiAqLwotICAgICAgICAgIGluc2VydF9zdHJpbmcgKCJJTkZPLURJUi1T RUNUSU9OICIpOwotICAgICAgICAgIGluc2VydF9zdHJpbmcgKGxpbmUpOwotICAgICAgICAgIGlu c2VydCAoJ1xuJyk7CisgICAgICAgICAgY21fbm9pbmRlbnQgKCk7IC8qIG1ha2Ugc3VyZSBhZ2Fp biAqLworICAgICAgICAgIGFkZF93b3JkICgiSU5GTy1ESVItU0VDVElPTiAiKTsKKyAgICAgICAg ICBhZGRfd29yZCAobGluZSk7CisgICAgICAgICAgYWRkX2NoYXIgKCdcbicpOwogICAgICAgICB9 CiAKICAgICAgIGZyZWUgKGxpbmUpOwo=
