The texinfo.tex from TexInfo 6 breaks the build and I have made a patch that solves the problem. I could as well have used the (outdated) texinfo.tex, but decided against the latter. The debuild runs on a minimal Debian Unstable now, with no lintian warning/errors. A pdebuild works. I have checked the manual, it is alright and the graphics are perfect. I could install the deb-files, load and use the package successfully in Octave (amd64 architecture). I see some of these error messages: /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/octave-pkg.ml:134: recipe for target 'check-pkg' failed make: [check-pkg] Error 1 (ignored) What is the failure here? Why does the build continue anyway? Would the build actually fail if some tests during check-pkg failed? Oliver
