You could temporarily make [/usr]/sbin/install-info a link to /bin/true; then this error wouldn't occur and you could reinstall and then remove the package. Your /info/dir might need manual fixing after that, though. I wonder why you got this problem in the first place. The install-info I have on the Hurd comes from the dpkg package and doesn't even contain the error message you got. Have you installed some other version? > If this error recoverable or must I revert to the tar ball and set > everything up again? Don't panic. :-)
