Bug#761189: coreutils: wrong 'info' command in ls manpage

2014-09-11 Thread Antoine Le Gonidec
Package: coreutils
Version: 8.23-2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,
At the end of the ls manpage we have the following instruction :

SEE ALSO
   The  full documentation for ls is maintained as a Texinfo manual.  If 
the info and ls programs are properly installed at your site, the command

  info coreutils 'ls invocation'

   should give you access to the complete manual.

-

The command should be :
info ls

instead of :
info coreutils 'ls invocation'

The latter returns :
No menu in node `(coreutils.info.gz)coreutils invocation'.

The issue is due to a new coreutils info node being present,
and is already handled upstream, though downstream 8.23
could be tweaked to avoid this issue.

thanks,
Pádraig.
