Date: Thu, 01 Mar 2012 10:25:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fwdsoepd.fsf@gnuvola.org> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 267 bytes --]
This patch is required for GNU Emacs to read /usr/share/info/dir.gz
(et al). I hope it can make it into the next release.
[Insert excuse for not having installed Bazarre, here
(flames => /dev/null).]
