Package: bash-doc
Version: 5.2~beta-1
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
The version in Debian unstable is affected too.
These packages declare a dep on "install-info". However this dep should only
be needed for info viewers, as they have to care about updating the info index.
Your packages do not seem to be info viewers hence the Dep on "install-info"
is not needed. Consider to remove it.

Many thanks,

Since 5.2.21-1, Bash no longer depends on install-info.
