Description Phil Muldoon 2011-06-22 10:00:04 UTC
Description of problem:

I installed gdb-doc from yum.  After installing, 'info gdb' brought up the 'gdbm' node.  Only after running:

sudo /sbin/install-info /usr/share/info/gdb.info-1.gz /usr/share/info/dir

did 'info gdb' bring up the correct GDB node.  The gdb.spec has the 'install-info' command, so not sure what is happening.  Maybe some side effect from the recent gdb-doc sub-package changes?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rpm -q gdb-doc
gdb-doc-7.2.90.20110525-38.fc15.noarch

rpm -q gdb
gdb-7.2.90.20110525-38.fc15.x86_64


How reproducible:

On install

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install gdb-doc
2. info gdb
3.
  
Actual results:

GDB info nodes are not searchable from 'info'.

Expected results:

'info gdb', and 'info' searches should find GDB nodes, not GDBM
