After merging a few packages following message started popping up after every merge. * Regenerating GNU info directory index... ('jed', None, None, '.gz') ('info', None, None, '.gz') * Processed 71 info files: 2 errors; type emerge --verbose to view errors. The emerge --verbose returns following * Regenerating GNU info directory index... ('jed', None, None, '.gz') install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/jed.info.gz' ('info', None, None, '.gz') install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/info.info.gz' * Processed 71 info files; 2 errors.
azarah: did you know how to handle these?
Hmmm... Is there a way to disable dir generation?
Fixing the directory indices is an easy fix (see my mail to gentoo-dev in late July, 2001).
Adding a link to the mail refered (I think) http://lists.gentoo.org/pipermail/gentoo-dev/2001-July/005648.html
Like Chad said .. not very difficult. Just have a look at the 'Master Info Index' (just run 'info'), choose the right Catagory for the app for those available, and also a fitting description. Then add near the top of the info page (look at others for help): INFO-DIR-SECTION <Catagory goes here> START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY * <Short name goes here>: (<.info filename>). <Description goes here> END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY For instance for LibGTop it is: INFO-DIR-SECTION Libraries START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY * LibGTop: (libgtop). A library to get system specific data. END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
fixed in 0.99.14-r1
