Hi people,

Here's a bug report from a Debian user, it seems reasonable...

Subject: Bug#63608: info: segfaults with man.1 if that is gzipped

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
