So I doubt that this is an issue (or this would mean that something else is broken).
I agree. However they does not resolve to the same strings. Here the patched code that I think is faulty: -(defun load-info-hashtables (dir-name deffn-defvr-pairs section-pairs) +(defun load-info-hashtables (dir-name deffn-defvr-pairs section-pairs + ;; In Debian, lsp index file must be in different directory from info files + &aux (dir-name + (or (when (equal (pathname (concatenate 'string maxima::*maxima-index-dir* "/")) + dir-name) + (maxima::combine-path maxima::*maxima-infodir* "")) + dir-name))) Jerome
