Comment 1 David Kaspar // Dee'Kej 2017-08-31 09:38:41 UTC

Ah, yes. The reason for it is that the symlinks are not created in the specfile during the build. I will fix this... :)

Comment 12 Don Swaner 2017-09-13 00:26:58 UTC

In F26, gawk-4.1.4-4.fc26.x86_64,
if I do an "info -x1 awk", it results in:

info: looking for file "gawk"
info: looking for file gawk in /usr/share/info
info: found file /usr/share/info/gawk.info.gz

However, I am still taken to the top info node, and I still get the error message : "Cannot find node 'Invoking gawk'."

Comment 13 Kamil Dudka 2017-09-13 08:39:14 UTC

While this was automatically closed by Bodhi, comment #9, comment #10 and comment #12 suggest that the problem still persists.  Reopening for further analysis...

Comment 14 Don Swaner 2017-09-13 12:02:23 UTC

In F26, gawk-4.1.4-4.fc26.x86_64,
if in line 1878 of /usr/share/info/dir, the link is changed from "...Invoking gawk..." to "...Invoking Gawk...", then "info awk" works.

Thanks for your help, Don. That actually led me to solution.

I have informed upstream about this issue:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gawk/2017-09/msg00015.html

I will create a new build, once they accept the fix. ;)

Comment 16 David Kaspar // Dee'Kej 2017-09-14 13:58:04 UTC

The patches were accepted by upstream:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gawk.git/commit/?id=45b363502f438604737f19b639

I will try to prepare a new gawk build tomorrow.
