No, I don't think you understand the issue ... The "packager" has in fact included the .info file that ships with this package's source, and the complete manual pages that ship with it as well. The fact that detail has been removed from the man pages in favour of the unintuitive interface of "info" is a choice made by the package developpers and maintainers, not the Linux distribution packager. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sylvain Robitaille syl@alcor.concordia.ca Systems and Network analyst Concordia University Instructional & Information Technology Montreal, Quebec, Canada ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
