Приблизительное время сборки: 0.6 SBU
Требует свободного места на диске: 101 MB

6.60.1. Установка Texinfo

Подготовим Texinfo к компиляции: 

./configure --prefix=/usr

Cкомпилируем пакет: 

make

Чтобы запустить тестирование пакета, выполните: 

make check

Установим пакет: 

make install

Optionally, install the components belonging in a TeX installation: 

make TEXMF=/usr/share/texmf install-tex

The meaning of the make parameter:

TEXMF=/usr/share/texmf

The TEXMF makefile variable holds the location of the root of the TeX tree if, for example, a TeX package will be installed later.

The Info documentation system uses a plain text file to hold its list of menu entries. The file is located at /usr/share/info/dir. Unfortunately, due to occasional problems in the Makefiles of various packages, it can sometimes get out of sync with the info pages installed on the system. If the /usr/share/info/dir file ever needs to be recreated, the following optional commands will accomplish the task: 

cd /usr/share/info
rm -v dir
for f in *
do install-info $f dir 2>/dev/null
done
