texi2dvi distributed with texinfo-4.0 puts my TEXINPUTS at the end of the
search path, rather than at the beginning. Is there a reason for this?
The reason not to is that I can't tell texi2dvi to use my new copy of
texinfo.tex rather than the much older copy we have in the texmf tree.
I didn't have trouble with INDEXSTYLE, presumably because I couldn't
through the first pass of tex anyway. But I figured it should be patched
the same way.
Perhaps texinfo.tex should be installed in prefix/share/texinfo.tex and
texi2dvi should set TEXINPUTS to reflect this.
A patch, at least, to put my TEXINPUTS first:
> diff -e texinfo-4.0/util/texi2dvi texi2dvi
323,325c
common=".$path_sep$orig_pwd$path_sep$filename_dir$path_sep$txincludes"
TEXINPUTS="$TEXINPUTS_orig$path_sep$common"
INDEXSTYLE="$INDEXSTYLE_orig$path_sep$common"
.
