Package: gcc-3.3-doc
Version: 1:3.3.2-0pre4
Severity: minor
It's intuitive for "info gcc" to document use of the compiler, but the
stand-along info reader finds gccint-3.3 in preference to gcc-3.3. I
don't know what the rules are for finding info files, but it would be
nice to arrange for gcc-3.3 to take precedence.
