I suggest $(infodir)/LL/MANUAL/MANUAL.xml for instance /usr/local/info/en/emacs/emacs.xml 1) We want to do a better job of supporting Texinfo documents in different languages. 2) We want to allow for including a manual's subsidiary runtime files -- namely images -- with the manual, so further processors have a chance to find them. 3) HTML files could be installed there too. I'd actually like to install info files in the same way, but that's a different story. Perhaps the extension should not be .xml, which is too generic after all. .txml?
