Bug#161238: gcc-2.95-doc: links to gcc.info from gdb info page are broken



Package: gcc-2.95-doc
Version: 1:2.95.4-7
Severity: normal


Some gdb info pages refer to gcc. Info tries to find gcc.info.gz but the
files installed are gcc-2.95.info.gz.

For instance, try the gdb page that talks about the gcc support to gdb
(maybe a search for "gstabs" will show the page).

It's hard for me to figure out a solution. We need a solution that allows
many versions of gcc-xxx.info installed. The best way would be if info asked
about which version of gcc to show.

In my machine, I did symlinks from gcc to gcc-2.95 and "solved" the problem,
like this:

# cd /usr/share/info
# for i in gcc-2.95.* ; do ln -s $i `echo $i | sed 's/-2.95//g'` ; done
