Thanks. I have found a slightly more elegant way (see d/p/texinfo.patch). I also applied your upstream patch that bumps the SOVERSION, and added a dependency of octave-common on fonts-freefonts-otf (to be sure they are there at runtime if the fallback is needed, let me know if this is not needed). I have uploaded the result to experimental (but it will have to go through NEW, because of the SOVERSION bump). BTW, can you possibly apply d/p/add_info_dir_categories upstream?
