Hmm. Sadly, I just cannot comprehend -- this seems like an unspecifiable, unmanageable, mess. I expect I'm missing something. Officially supporting subdirectories, and figuring out what that actually means, does not seem like a win to me. Just the opposite. For one thing, it seems like cross-manual references will once again lose by design, and having spent years working out a scheme to make them resolve, that does not thrill me. As far as I can see, Debian is creating the "problem" by distributing two different versions of Emacs at the same time. So it seems to me the answer should come at the same level: Debian could have two different directories with the Emacs manuals. Then no changes are needed anywhere else. An /etc/alternatives-like thing could specify the default, and/or mess around with INFOPATH as Gavin mentions, or whatever. But heck, it's not up to me. If Gavin and the Emacs maintainers can implement whatever you want implemented, more power to all concerned :). --karl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
