That does not work, you would need to do
sudo make install-info sudo make install-info-debian
with the original Makefile -

A Makefile is not the place to pull stunts, IMHO. Whenever you feel
that should become necessary, maybe it's time to go autoconf or some

org-mode, since it again adds some

But from what I saw in the Ubuntu man-page, debian install-info is a wrapper

No I can't provide any patch that works with all distros. I don't have

Hi Jude,
I understand.
I think we can go with a FAQ: How to compile and install Org under
Debian and Slackware?, then include your patch in the answer.
Can someone confirm Jude's patch solves install issues for Debian

Indeed. I'll apply every patch that

Could you provide a patch that works for *every* distro, including
debian and slackware?
