We currently have a broken link in the installation docs, see below.
I've tried to fix it, but on both Fedora 15 and Debian squeeze the
docs generated by "make html" do not match the online docs because of
a different version of makeinfo (4.13 versus 4.8 usedfor the online
docs).
Can anyone with makeinfo 4.8 confirm that this fixes the broken anchor?
Or should I just commit it as obvious and revert it if the regenerated
onlinedocs aren't fixed?
