With sys-apps/texinfo-5.1 installed, sci-mathematics/octave-3.6.4 produces errors about misplaced braces in the src_install phase. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge '=sys-apps/texinfo-5.1' 2. emerge '=sci-mathematics/octave-3.6.4' Actual Results: ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:83: misplaced { ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:83: misplaced } ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:84: misplaced { ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:84: misplaced } ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:85: misplaced { ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:85: misplaced } ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:86: misplaced { ../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi:86: misplaced } make[1]: *** [../../../doc/liboctave/liboctave.info] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/amod/workspace/octave/build/doc/liboctave' Expected Results: The package should merge smoothly. Excerpt from <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2013-03/msg00007.html>: > . @-commands are now recognized in raw format blocks. Therefore, for > example, lone @, { and } characters in @tex, @html and similar > environments must be converted to the normal @@, @{, and @} commands. Following is a patch (seems quite short, so not uploading it as an attachment). I'm not sure whether this goes well with older texinfo versions, and you might need to make a test. diff -Nur octave-3.6.4-orig/doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi octave-3.6.4/doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi --- octave-3.6.4-orig/doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi 2013-02-22 04:19:23.000000000 +0800 +++ octave-3.6.4/doc/liboctave/liboctave.texi 2013-06-19 06:46:26.701783000 +0800 @@ -80,10 +80,10 @@ @end ifnottex @titlepage -@title{Octave C++ Classes} -@subtitle{Edition 1.0 for Octave version @value{VERSION}} -@subtitle{September 1993} -@author{John W.
