[help-texinfo] Using @ref with two arguments

[Christopher Dimech]

I am getting quite confused on why would need @ref with two arguments.

Could not find an example when using two arguments is useful when using
texi2pdf.

Then

@ref{ccby--oth--rights}
This prints Section 1.1.2 [ccby--oth--rights]

@ref{ccby--scope, ccby--oth--rights}
This prints Section 1.1 [ccby--scope]

Is there a way to print the following
  Section 1.1.2 [d]
but the reference gets you at the anchor point rather
than to Section 1.1.2?

I am using texi2pdf.



The sectioning is as follows

@node free-lic
@chapter Free License

@node ccby--scope
@section Scope

@node ccby--lic--grant
@subsection License Grant

@node ccby--oth--rights
@subsection Other Rights

@enumerate a
@item Text
@item Text
@item Text

@anchor{ccby--pattm--rights}
@item Text
@end enumerate

Re: [help-texinfo] Cross-References display undefined when using @include

[Christopher Dimech]

I removed all the files, and rerun texi2pdf 2019308.texi

Still, I get undefined. Still haven't figured out how this is happening.

when I use @setfilename and run texi2pdf a few times, everything is correct.
