While building the odepkg package for Debian, I wished to install the odepkg.info file as obtained from doc/odepkg.texi. The new install-info in Debian unstable (the one from GNU, in contrast with the one from dpkg previously used) now complains that dir section information is missing.
For the Debian package, I am for now patching the upstream sources, version 0.6.6, with the patch attached below. I did not commit it to SVN because my choice of section and title are adapted to Debian and may not suit the upstream authors. Please, consider changing the sources in SVN along these lines. -- Rafael
Change this patch to add @dircategory and @direntry macros directly into the texinfo source file. -- Rafael Laboissiere <[email protected]> Sun, 24 May 2009 17:06:44 +0200 Add info-dir information at the header of doc.info file -- Rafael Laboissiere <[email protected]> Sun, 17 Feb 2008 16:01:04 +0100 --- a/doc/odepkg.texi +++ b/doc/odepkg.texi @@ -37,6 +37,11 @@ @end titlepage @c %*** End of TITLEPAGE +...@dircategory Mathematics +...@direntry +* OdePkg: (odepkg). solve ordinary differential equations in Octave +...@end direntry + @c %*** Start of BODY @contents @ifnottex
