since today the emacs build fails on makeinfo >= 4.13, however texinfo-6.4-6 is installed:
checking for setfattr... yes
configure: error: You do not seem to have makeinfo >= 4.13, and your
source tree does not seem to have pre-built manuals in the 'info' directory.
Either install a suitable version of makeinfo, or re-run configure
with the '--without-makeinfo' option to build without the manuals.
