Description Michal Jaegermann 2009-12-26 20:30:51 UTC

Description of problem:

Installing enblend causes the following complaints to show up:

install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/enblend.info'
install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/enfuse-focus-stacking.info'
install-info: warning: no info dir entry in `/usr/share/info/enfuse.info'

Indeed, those entries are missing and as a result actions of %post package script like:

/sbin/install-info /usr/share/info/enblend.info /usr/share/info/dir

do not insert corresponding entries into /usr/share/info/dir and one cannot use the later as an index to find documentation in question.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
enblend-3.2-4.fc12

Additional info:
Exampless of what is expected are all over the place. INFO-DIR-SECTION in /usr/share/info/info-stnd.info.gz could be a good start.

Typing commands like 'info enfuse-focus-stacking' does bring a documentation in question into a scren but one has to know a "proper name" and doing just 'info' followed by a search does not work.  The same with other info readers.

Duplicate of Bug #497577

This should be fixed upstream in the 4.0 release, which I'm planning to push for F13 soon.

I'm not an info expert, it would be helpful if you could test the SRPM here:

http://bugbear.postle.net/~bruno/apt/fedora/linux/11/i386/SRPMS.panorama/enblend-4.0-0.fc11.src.rpm

(I didn't create it, there are a couple of packaging flaws: it should be Version: 1 and the .spec file is misnamed, but it is otherwise fine)

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2010-11-04 02:27:52 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

enblend-4.0-4.fc13 indeed does not suffer from the problem but nobody closed the bug.
