Texinfo Bug List

In the current texinfo-4.0/info/filesys.h a define exists to specify
a path of directories to look for info dir files.  This tries to cover
many possible paths.  Additionally an environment variable INFOPATH
may be specified to point to custom locations.

I have found that one semi-popular installation location on
non-GNU-native systems is missing from this path and that location is
/opt/local/info.  The path /opt/gnu/info is included and it would be
most convenient if this new directory was added near it.

Suggested for texinfo-4.0/info/filesys.h:

#  define DEFAULT_INFOPATH 
"/usr/local/info:/usr/info:/usr/local/lib/info:/usr/lib/info:/usr/local/gnu/info:/usr/local/gnu/lib/info:/usr/gnu/info:/usr/gnu/lib/info:/opt/local/info:/opt/gnu/info:/usr/share/info:/usr/share/lib/info:/usr/local/share/info:/usr/local/share/lib/info:/usr/gnu/lib/emacs/info:/usr/local/gnu/lib/emacs/info:/usr/local/lib/emacs/info:/usr/local/emacs/info:."


Please consider this addition for the next texinfo release.

Thanks
Bob Proulx
