It seems to me like Emacs 29 is putting Emacs' info directory first, so I'm closing this bug report. (I may be mistaken, and there's some cases where that doesn't happen, but I haven't been able to reproduce it -- if somebody has a case for reproduction, please go ahead and open a new bug report.) (And I still agree with myself that INFOPATH should take precedence.) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
