texinfo-3.12
News:
- 2000 Apr 21: repackaged texinfo with a
relinked install-info.exe, to remove a dependency on libz.dll (linked
libz.a statically instead). Thanks to Olaf Bachmann for pointing this out.
Download:
texinfo-3.12-cygwin1.1.README
First, bootstrap by building only makeinfo.exe as explained in
gettext-0.10.35-cygwin-pre21.README
'Course, since gettext is a prerequisite, you might as well build
these packages first:
Prerequisites:
gettext
ncurses
Then, configure:
export CLFAGS=-I/usr/local/include
export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
./configure --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --prefix=/usr/local
make
make check (a no-op)
make install
make_install will install the following files:
/usr/local/bin/info
/usr/local/bin/makeinfo
/usr/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/texinfo.mo
/usr/local/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/texinfo.mo
/usr/local/bin/install-info
/usr/local/bin/texindex
/usr/local/bin/texi2dvi
/usr/local/info/info-stnd.info
/usr/local/info/texinfo*
/usr/local/info/info.info
and then it runs the following commands [1]:
install-info --info-dir=/usr/local/info /usr/local/info/info-stnd.info
install-info --info-dir=/usr/local/info /usr/local/info/info.info
install-info --info-dir=/usr/local/info /usr/local/info/texinfo
and finally, I installed these files by hand
/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/texinfo/texinfo.tex
/usr/local/share/texmf/generic/dvips/epsf.tex
[1]
If you unpack the binary distro, you'll need to run these three
commands yourself
