The Texinfo package contains programs for reading, writing, and
converting info pages.
Approximate build time:
0.3 SBU
Required disk space:
21 MB
6.58.1. Installation of Texinfo
Prepare Texinfo for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr
Compile the package:
make
To test the results, issue:
make check
Install the package:
make install
Optionally, install the components belonging in a TeX installation:
make TEXMF=/usr/share/texmf install-tex
The meaning of the make parameter:
-
TEXMF=/usr/share/texmf
-
The TEXMF makefile variable holds
the location of the root of the TeX tree if, for example, a
TeX package will be installed later.
The Info documentation system uses a plain text file to hold its
list of menu entries. The file is located at /usr/share/info/dir. Unfortunately, due to
occasional problems in the Makefiles of various packages, it can
sometimes get out of sync with the info pages installed on the
system. If the /usr/share/info/dir
file ever needs to be recreated, the following optional commands
will accomplish the task:
cd /usr/share/info
rm -v dir
for f in *
do install-info $f dir 2>/dev/null
done
