[Frank Küster] Bug#322338: lilypond: Installs texinfo.tex, thus shadowing texinfo's version



--- Begin Message ---
Package: lilypond-data
Version: 2.2.6-3
Severity: important

If lilypond is installed besides texinfo, texinfo can no longer find its
main input file texinfo.tex, because lilypond installs a file of that
name in /usr/share/lilypond/2.2.6/tex/texinfo.tex and provides a symlink
from /usr/share/texmf/tex/lilypond to /usr/share/lilypond/2.2.6/tex/.

This has the consequence that any update or change made to texinfo will
have no effect unless lilypond changes the duplicate, too.

Please fix this bug by removing the file from lilypond-data, and instead
depend on texinfo.  

This bug will get RELEASE CRITICAL as soon as teTeX-3.0 (now in
experimental) enters unstable, because then the outdated version in
lilypond will stop working.

It might be a good idea to actually 

Depend: texinfo | texlive-texinfo

since this package is expected to enter unstable in a while.

Regards, Frank
