there is a bug in the install process for info pages, leaving specific packages (such as cvs, for example) without properly installed info pages (just the default man page) ie: % info cvs brings the cvs man page in the info screen instead of the more informative info page
Works for me here ; info cvs brings up the CVS info page.
I get the same problem w/RH 6.1 Note that removing the CVS rpm unsuccessfully uninstalls the info dir entries for cvs since they weren't successfully installed when the RPM was installed. rpm -e cvs-1.10.6-2 install-info: warning: no entries found for `//usr/info/cvs.info.gz'; nothing deleted install-info: warning: no entries found for `//usr/info/cvsclient.info.gz'; nothing deleted BTW, I thought it might be nice to at least have a documented workaround on file: install-info /usr/info/cvs.info.gz /usr/info/dir This does not, however, install an info dir entry for the cvsclient info pages.
Fixed in the cvs package currently in the rawhide tree.
