Re: bug in packages.texi

Which version of XEmacs are you refering to? I have verified the whole xemacs.texi, which includes packages.texi, under emacs-version "21.0 \"Benadir\" XEmacs Lucid" (21.0-b50). In xemacs.texi I used C-u M-x texinfo-format-buffer M-x Info-tagify M-x Info-validate And here is what I got: Formatting Info file... Formatting Info file: ../../info/xemacs.info Converting xemacs.texi to Info format... Removing trailing whitespace from Info buffer...
