Description Uwe Ohse 2002-07-08 01:20:10 UTC

texinfo-4.2-r4.ebuild contains:
                for i in texinfo-*
                do
                        mv ${i} texinfo.info-${i#texinfo-*}
                done
but the main .info file references texinfo-1, not texinfo.info-1.

Possible fixes:
a) tell makeinfo to ignore the @setfilename in texinfo.txi,
b) use the names the texinfo maintainers like.

Regards, Uwe

Fixed in -r5.  This is done by modifying the Makefile, and .txi file to
change the files being installed/generated, rather than renaming them.
