Bug#790019: texinfo: depends on gawk, but texindex calls mawk
Package: texinfo
Version: 5.9.96.dfsg.1-1
Severity: serious
I read bug #790004 and wondered where gawk is actually called… turns out
it isn't, since on i386 (and most likely on other architectures)
texindex actually calls mawk:

# else use configured value for awk.
if test -z "$awk_binary"; then
- awk_binary="gawk"
+ awk_binary="mawk"

# that should never be empty, but just in case, else fall back to plain

Remedy: either add a build dependency on gawk, or, if the outcome of
#790004 is that any awk implementation will do, configure with AWK=awk.
