As a workaround, try "dpkg -r --force-depends texinfo", and then you 
should be able to build msp*.  Then go ahead and use "fink install 
texinfo" to put that back in place.

For the maintainer:  there are a couple of options available under these 
circumstances.

If you can force the package to use /usr/bin/makeinfo, that will work 
most of the time (at least on 10.6-10.8).

Otherwise, you can add a BuildDepends: texinfo-legacy, and make sure 
that %p/opt/texinfo-legacy/bin is at the head of the PATH during the 
phase where the docs are built.
