Package: info
Version: 4.0-4
Severity: normal
Hi,
if there is in a package a wrongly named manpage, that is,the
manpage is called foo.1, but foo.1 is a gzipped file or a
link to a gzipped file, then info segfaults when it tries to
look at this file (info foo).
While this is of course a bug in the other package, info
should not segfault (naturally).
Thanks,
Ulf
