Subject: bug#19880: 24.4; info-look.el latex2e.info setup
Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2015 11:31:53 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zj8ed7d2.fsf@blah.blah> (raw)

If info-look.el is loaded before info-mode has been used then a
latex2e.info file is not noticed for latex-mode help.  For example

    [ have a copy of latex2e.info in /usr/share/info ]
    emacs -Q /tmp/foo.ltx
    \part                  ;; buffer content
    C-h S
    =>
    [message] Cannot access Info node `(latex)Command Index'
    [error}   info-lookup: Not documented as a symbol: \cdots

I hoped it could open latex2e.info, per the conditional in info-look.el

    (if (Info-find-file "latex2e" t)
        ;; From http://home.gna.org/latexrefman
        "(latex2e)Command Index"
      "(latex)Command Index")

I think `Info-find-file' doesn't work until `info-initialize' has run.
Perhaps chuck that or equivalent in there.
