As far as I know there are no any simple solutions. You need to edit the R-doc package's info documents themselves and change the section. It's the "INFO-DIR-SECTION" keyword. "install-info" command will update the "dir" file. The problem is that next version of R-doc package will overwrite your changes. Perhaps you can make a script which edits the info files automatically (using "sed" or something). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
