I still could not install the .deb though because the info file names were not matching, so I figured out the mangle-info script apparently serves to point the entry in the “dir” file to the fink-modified path. It would not work in gzipped files; as I did not have the nerve to polish my perl skill to do that with "use IO::Zlib” and stuff, I fixed it the primitive way and also fixed the list of info files. I was able to install the package now, browse some info files and load various modes and auctex successfully. There is an apparently non-serious font error message when starting auctex, but that can be fixed by upgrading to auctex 11.87 (can submit that to the package tracker later). Cheers, Derek
