thanks

Hello,

Based on Kurt B. Kaiser, I'm attaching a patch.

The problem is that the last line of the directory file never ends by a
new line and thus is not displayed by info.

The problem is not specific to the coreutils info file. It is caused by
install-info, which keeps the line in the '@newwork' array, and later
joins the line with 'join("\n",@newwork)', which doesn't add an ending
newline.

Kind Regards,
