Hello hackers, Some days ago I installed Ubuntu Karmic onto a netbook, using Esperanto as the main locale. Today I find that 'info' does not work:
$ info info: La nodo «Top» ne troveblas. $ LC_ALL=C info info: Cannot find node `Top'. In /usr/share/info there are some thirty gzipped info files, but the dir file just contains the header in Esperanto and ends with the line "* Menu:". Can anyone confirm that, starting with an absent dir file, install-info does not work in an eo.utf8 locale? When the dir file already contains a menu entry, using the Esperanto locale does work, it only produces a warning. Running for example the following commands in /usr/share/info seems to produce a fully populated dir file, and the 'info' command then works: # rm dir # LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 ginstall-info grep.info.gz dir # ls | LC_ALL=eo.utf8 xargs -n1 ginstall-info --dir-file=dir install-info: averto: Nenia informo por Info-katalogo troviĝis en «dir» $ info --version | head -1 info (GNU texinfo) 4.13 (Please CC, not subscribed.)
