Tramp's 2.1.10 INSTALL file says:

| For installation, it requires at least the following program versions:
| 
|   [...]
|   - GNU texinfo 4.6

Emacs' 22.1.50 FAQ (info "(efaq) Installing Texinfo documentation")
refers to GNU texinfo 4.8.

Best regards, Michael.

I've added a configure check for makeinfo >= 4.8. Not sure if this is
the oldest version that works.

Michael, if @indent is the only feature of Texinfo 4.6 that you need,
how about if we rewrite that node to not use this command?  From what
I see in that node, a simple @enumerate should do, right?

Since Tramp requires 4.6, obviously 4.6 is good enough.  I think you
should rewrite that test to require 4.6 or later.  There's no need to
be tougher with the users than is absolutely necessary.

I hope Michael will agree to rewrite the manual to not use @indent, in
which case we could ask for 4.3 or later.

Looks like this. Tramp's test.texi, used for checks during configure
when installed standalone, reads:

+---
| \input texinfo   @c -*-texinfo-*-
| 
| @c texinfo 4.2
| @copying
| @end copying
| 
| @c texinfo 4.6
| @indent
| 
| @bye
+---

I'll verify it next days.

Maybe one could document somewhere which program versions a
contribution to GNU Emacs must support? It would help to write
compatible code.

Best regards, Michael.

I agree.

Regarding Texinfo, README says at least v4.2 is needed, but that's not
true any longer, since man/Makefile.in uses the --enable-encoding
switch to makeinfo, which was introduced in Texinfo 4.6.

So maybe you don't need to rewrite @indent after all (unless you want
to for your own reasons, unrelated to the Emacs distro).

Thanks for the info. I will keep Tramp as it is wrt texinfo, because
it uses a sufficient check already during configuration.

Best regards, Michael.

Ouch, yes. Done.
