Description MageSlayer 2013-01-06 11:22:24 UTC

It requires sys-apps/texinfo-4.14 as it uses newer features (see below).
See http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/64278
Moreover, seems emacs ebuild lacks dependency on texinfo altogether.

Reproducible: Always

As far as I can see, texinfo-4.14 isn't even released yet. Since a solution is already available, let Emacs upstream take care of it.
