Title:
info missing help docs "info info" and "H" command return error
Status in texinfo package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The info command in Ubuntu 18.04 lacks it's own info page. This means
that hitting "H" from within info to get a list of key bindings fails,
as well as invoking info with "info info."
In GNUs infinite wisdom, many terminal utilities lack a proper man
page. These man pages include a short description of the program, then
direct the user to run info for the complete documentation. "man info"
is a great example of that where it includes a few command line
options, and no information on what keys are used to navigate through
the system (except to press H, which fails because the info
documentation is missing).
