Well, I discovered a catch-22 sort of thing that perhaps someone can
advise me on. texinfo does not include /sbin/install-info. Its in a
package called info. If you try to rpm install info it claims it hits
texinfo. If you uninstall texinfo yast does not work. So that put me
back to the original spot. I cannot compile balsa because it wants
files that I cannot install. I need to install GTK+1.2 but it wants
/sbin/install-info but I can't install info because it bumps against
texinfo. Wierd... Really wierd. Is anyone using balsa that they
compiled on suse 6?
