Bug#417531: emacs-snapshot: snapshot vs elisp-manual package

[Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>]

Package: emacs-snapshot
Version: 1:20070302-1
Severity: normal

Running up

	emacs-snapshot -Q

and opening the manual

	C-h i g (emacs)

then following the emacs lisp manual link

	Tab Ret

opens the emacs 21 manual from the elisp-manual package,
ie. /usr/share/info/elisp.gz, if you've got that package installed.
It'd be nice if it opened the emacs-snapshot version,
ie. /usr/share/info/emacs-snapshot/elisp.gz.

Maybe "/usr/share/info/emacs-MAJOR" in Info-default-directory-list
could be ahead of the plain "/usr/share/info".  Or maybe elisp-manual
should be putting its bits in the emacs-21 subdir, if that doesn't
break standalone info readers that don't know about the subdirs.
