Subject: No emacs info node
Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 17:51:04 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <slrne4crfj.9ks.tim@linus.johnson.com> (raw)

Using  21.4.1 on linux.
No 'info' node for emacs is available.
Example:
c-h i memacs RET gives me [no match]

the shell command: locate /info/emacs | more
seems to indicate that emacs info files are at

/usr/share/info
and
/usr/local/info/

I've set INFOPATH as follows in .bashrc
export INFOPATH="/usr/local/info:/usr/share/info"
echo $INFOPATH from both shell and from emacs shell command
confirms this path value.

And here's the puzzling thing:
  1)eval-expression (info "emacs") gives me the node.
  2)calling `info emacs' from shell gives me the node as a standalone feature.

And ideas?
thanks
tim
