There was a long thread on this exact subject, and the upshot was GNU Emacs already requires Texinfo 4.2, so live with it until your distro catches up, or build Texinfo 4.2 yourself. If you're updating by CVS, just remove it yourself. It'll stay removed (unless Kai does a major reorganization of the texi source, but that will cause a CVS conflict), and as long as you don't redistribute, there's no legal issue. Or switch to Debian. bash-2.05b$ dpkg -l texinfo Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ ii texinfo 4.2-1 Documentation system for on-line information -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN My nostalgia for Icon makes me forget about any of the bad things.
