Bug#815369: Fwd: gcc-5-doc: FTBFS in sid: ./gnat_rm.aux:1: TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=5000].

Dear all

> > I just filed this bug (#815369) against gcc-5-doc, but maybe you want to

The patch
gnat-cross-references.diff
in gcc-5-doc is broken. The header says:
Description: Changed cross reference to versioned info pages.
 Created using perl, then manually checked for correctness.
 perl -i -pe 's/gnat_rm/\@value{fngnatrm}/g'
 perl -i -pe 's/gnat_ugn/\@value{fngnatugn}/g'
 perl -i -pe 's/gnat-style/\@value{fngnatstyle}/g'
but this also changes the
@setfilename 
setting, which is not supported, and in fact it seems it has never been
supported (looking back into the history of texinfo).

I don't know how these packages were built, but the change was introduced
in git commit da9d947d (btw, the git master is outdated - what is going 
on here??? git contains still as changelog:
gcc-5-doc (5.2.0-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
and last commit from Sun Aug 9 16:28:21 2015 -0400.

As far as I am concerned, this is not a bug in texinfo.

Thanks

Norbert

Ok, it is irrelevant from this change. I checked with texinfo.tex from
the original 6.1 version and the same happens, so this is a different bug.

We should try to get a minimal non-working example, though :-(

All the best

Thanks.

The last change was actually to get gcc docs built, and I got the
feedback that it *did* work before uploading, so I am a bit
surprised.

Yes, that is the version I uploaded with a backport of an upstream
fix that broke the gcc (gdb?) build originally. Bummer.

I have to look into it, thnaks.
