Bugzilla Bug 42895

Whenever I do an emerge which regenerates the info index, I get warnings about
the g-wrap info files having no info dir entry.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -v g-wrap
Actual Results:  
output end like this:

 * Regenerating GNU info directory index...
install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/g-wrap.info.gz'
install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/g-wrap.info-1.gz'
install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/g-wrap.info-2.gz'
 * Processed 331 info files; 3 errors.


Expected Results:  
Regenerating the info index should not emit warnings.

Just to confirm and to add that this is g-wrap 1.3.4 doing this (at least on my
machine).

Whoops, I forgot to include the version number. It's 1.3.4 here too.

anyone with a patch to fix those info files to make them more compliant?

Created an attachment (id=29654) [details]
Adds a direntry to g-wrap.info{-1,-2} and g-wrap.texi

The category was chosen to place g-wrap with slib, goops, and guile. The
description is based on information from the ebuild and info file. This patch
modifies both the .texi file and the .info* files because g-wrap's make system
creates one large .info file by default. So, in order to preserve the split
info files without further modifying the ebuild, the patch adds the DIRENTRY to
the info files themselves.

The patch works for me

foser, would you like to check this out, or shall I check it in? (note, it's
related to a similar gnucash issue)

check it in... i'm glad someone is properly taking care of gnucash related
stuff right now..

Doug, thanks a *bunch* for the patch.  g-wrap-1.3.4-r1 is now in portage.
