XEmacs installation

This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! This is a really minor bug that I just encountered. Apparently, the info directory file (dir) is being installed before the actual info files. Thus dir appears to be outdated and the info directory will be regenerated every time the info browser is started. This results in duplicate entries. After I touch'ed the dir-file the problem disappeared. ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux typhoon 2.4.18 #6 Mon Apr 29 21:13:27 EDT 2002 i686 unknown ./configure '--dynamic' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-sound=esd' '--with-database=gnudbm' '--mail-locking=flock' '--pdump' '--with-pop' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--with-dialogs=athena' '--with-widgets=athena' XEmacs 21.4.8 "Honest Recruiter" configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
