=====================================
bash-doc package creates a symlink named bash.info.gz pointing to
bashref.info.gz in /usr/share/info
The following command works
$ yelp info:bashref
However, the following segfaults
$ yelp info:bash
It also segfaults on nonexistent info, like
$ yelp info:yabadaba
I'd expect a sane fallback in this case, like
$ yelp man:yabadaba
