Bug#740343: texinfo: texi2pdf.1 is garbled and wrong



Package: texinfo
Version: 5.2.0.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal

/usr/share/man/man1/texi2pdf.1.gz is garbled to a comical degree.

It's also wrong in that I _do_ have a working tex (namely that
provided by texlive-binaries).

I suspect that both points are the result of excessive faith in
help2man.
