As mentioned several email ago, xrefs from one .info to another. For example, in the "gcj" info page in the "Invoking gcj" node is a link to the "Option Summary" node of the "gcc" info page. You have gcj at gcj-fsf-4.5 and gcc at gcc-fsf-4.5. If I don't have gcc4.5 installed, then I only have gcc-fsf-4.5 (not gcc) and the link is broken. If I have gcc4.4 (or any "other than 4.5 gcc") installed, then the link goes to *that* gcc, not the 4.5 one (i.e., gcj-fsf-4.5 is sending me to a symlink to gcc-fsf-4.4 rather than gcc-fsf-4.5). That's the problem I'm trying to solve. If the documentation isn't self-consistent (from the perspective of the reader), it's not useful/usable. dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
