I've gone ahead and pushed Paul's patch, and will shortly push a patch to autoconf so that it's own INSTALL file matches the gnulib INSTALL. Meanwhile, I have a new question - by default, makeinfo produces `' quoting by default in the creation of INSTALL, and we have INSTALL.ISO to convert to '' quoting. But given our recent push to use '' quoting everywhere, should we be ditching INSTALL.ISO and make INSTALL use '' quoting? Should we be using '@set txicodequotebacktick' or similar markup in install.texi in order alter the preferred quoting styles to begin with? -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
