I have made some changes to .texi files in .../emacs-22.1/lispref and
want to re-compile the manual.  I made the required changes to
Makefile.in, which refers to makeinfo:

TEXI2DVI = texi2dvi
SHELL = /bin/sh
INSTALL_INFO = install-info
MAKEINFO = makeinfo --force

makeinfo is not on my system, and I was unable to find it on the fsf
website: http://directory.fsf.org/search/?query=makeinfo

Where is makeinfo now, please?

`makeinfo' is part of the `Texinfo' package, as far as I know.
A search via Google turns up (as second match)
http://directory.fsf.org/texinfo.html, so you (c|sh)ould argue that your
search should have found it.  Please report the problem to the people
taking care of the directory.fsf.org web-site.

It's part of the GNU Texinfo package.
