Bug#723711: info: /etc/mailcap entry

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

Package: info
Version: 5.1.dfsg.1-5
Severity: wishlist

This is an idea for an /etc/mailcap entry to display info files with the
info viewer.  It allows for example

    see /usr/share/info/info.info.gz

I get some joy from the line below for debian/info.mime file which
debhelper dh_installmime can copy to /usr/share/mime/packages/info.

application/x-info; /usr/bin/info -f '%s'; needsterminal; description=GNU Info document
