RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
when a document contains an @enumerate block
with start number ≥ 10, like:
 
    @enumerate 10
    @item Ten
    @item Eleven
    @end enumerate
 
makeinfo fails with “bad argument to @enumerate” error.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
texinfo-5.1-4.el7.x86_64
texinfo-5.1-1.fc19.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
$ cat <<EOF >> test.texi
> @enumerate 10
> @item Ten
> @item Eleven
> @end enumerate
> EOF

2.
$ makeinfo -o test.info test.texi
test.texi:1: bad argument to @enumerate


Actual results:
error: "test.texi:1: bad argument to @enumerate"

Expected results:

Additional info:

It has been fixed upstream:

        handle correctly @enumerate specification greater than 10.  Report
        from Dmitry Shachnev.

I think we're hitting this when trying to build python3-sphinx 1.2.3 for EPEL.
