I've just upgraded our GNU texinfo to the latest available version 4.0. Please see src/contrib/texinfo/NEWS for what has been changed since 3.12. It should be built with `make world', not by simple `cvs update' and `make'. If you wonder why, please see the log message for src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo/doc/Makefile,v 1.10. But if you need to, it is possible to build it without `world' by: make MAKEINFO=../makeinfo/makeinfo The install-info(1)'s --forceentry option has been removed, since it is (and always was) the same as stock --entry option (i.e., it overrides any INFO-DIR-ENTRY from the INFO-FILE).
