Hi everyone,
I'd be happy to change the default to
infodir = $(prefix)/share/info
if this is a better default for most systems. Is it better? So could
people on
different systems out there please check where the standard info
directory is located?
Thanks.

There might be an inconsistency in the install process. Well, on my

In the Makefile we have

Now I dont pretend to even begin to understand how the info system
works
but a "sudo make install-info" does not work because (a) it puts the
file into /usr/local/info and my system appears to expect it in
/usr/local/share/info. In addition the install info command appears to
be broken:
,----
| if [ ! -d /usr/local/info ]; then mkdir -p /usr/local/info; else
true; fi ;
| cp -p doc/org /usr/local/info
| install-info --info-file=doc/org --info-dir=/usr/local/info
| Usage: install-info [<options> ...] [--] <filename>
`----
Hopefully someone can shed some light. I think it used to work but am
not sure if I was picking up a local info file before.
