and makeinfo
* Fri Feb 18 2022 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Do not recommend texinfo-lang in package info anymore (boo#1196156)
- Rename texinfo-lang to makeinfo-lang as package makeinfo
uses those locale files
* Wed Feb 16 2022 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- The new package texinfo-lang should not include the binaries
with its helper files, therefore recreate texinfo package
- Require glibc-locale at build time as otherwise perl falls
always back to C locale

- Port the texinfo-zlib.patch to new version 6.6 to solve build problems
* Tue Aug 27 2019 Martin Pluskal <mpluskal@suse.com>
- Update to version 6.6:
* Language:
. new commands @&, @ampchar{}
. @cropmarks command removed
. @ctrl is no longer recognised (it was a way to insert literal
control characters in Info files, but deprecated since the
time of Texinfo version 2)
. \usebracesinindexestrue is no longer recommended for using braces in
index entries, and has been a no-op for some time
* texi2any
. extension modules fixed to work with the "thread-safe locales" of
Perl 5.28 and newer
. some code changed to stop warnings being given by newer versions of Perl
. for HTML output, use `id' to define link targets instead of the `name'
attribute on <a>
. A native-code implementation of the Texinfo parser has been included
on an experimental basis, which makes texi2any a lot faster. Set the
`TEXINFO_XS_PARSER' environment variable to 1 to use.
. changes to HTML output:
. omit colon after node name in menus by default (use
`MENU_ENTRY_COLON' to add it back)
. no special CSS for commands like @smallexample
. new customization variable `SECTION_NAME_IN_TITLE' to use the
section name as the document <title>
. use section names instead of node names in generated menus
. pass on flags set with -D to TeX
. useless static libraries are not installed
. the newline after an @insertcopying is not output
. warning given for @multitable prototypes not in braces
. @indent and @noindent are not allowed inside the arguments to
commands where they are not meaningful
. @quote-arg and @allow-recursion are not recognised (these two used
to be recognised by makeinfo in macro definitions but were never
implemented in texinfo.tex)
. `FIX_TEXINFO' removed as a customization variable
. do not recognise or warn about obsolete customization variables
* info
. debugging output with -x is not diverted to a separate infodebug file
* Development:
. switch from Subversion to git
- https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=texinfo
. automake 1.16
- Drop no longer needed patch:
* perl-5.28-fixes.patch
