Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: maxima
Issue:
After an upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy, Maxima's describe() function is broken:
(%i23) describe(integrate);
Could not find `/usr/share/info/maxima-index.lisp' using paths in
file_search_lisp,system.
-- an error. To debug this try debugmode(true);
Uninstalling and reinstalling maxima and the maxima-* packages did not
resolve the issue. Under Feisty, describe() worked properly.
Workaround:
sudo ln -s /usr/share/doc/maxima-doc/info/maxima-index.lisp.gz
/usr/share/info/maxima-index.lisp.gz
** Affects: maxima (Ubuntu)
