Subject: XEmacs info.el and PGnus info files
Date: 29 May 2000 16:44:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <muxwvkd76vp.fsf@uzeb.lrde.epita.fr> (raw)


        There's a problem:

- our info.el assumes that all info files have a .info extention (modulo
  gzip compression and stuff).
- PGnus calls its info files gnus-[0-9]+

        As a result, these files can never be seen in the Info buffer. I
discovered that because the PGnus info files are currently the only ones I
have in my site-packages directory, and this directory suddenly disapeared
from my Info buffer.

        Personaly, I think that our info.el tries to be too clever, but I also
think that PGnus shouldn't mess around with makeinfo's output file name.
