Bug#814830: texinfo-6.1 breaks documentation builds (gdb-doc)



Package: texinfo
Severity: important
Version: 6.1.0.dfsg.1-1
Tags: sid stretch

As seen in #814812, gdb-doc fails to build using texinfo 6.1:

texi2dvi --pdf -I /home/packages/gdb/gdb-7.10.90.20160215/gdb/doc /home/packages/gdb/gdb-7.10.90.20160215/gdb/doc/stabs.texinfo This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 (TeX Live 2015/Debian) (preloaded format=pdfetex)

I don't see any particular wrong with the texi file. Reverting back to 6.0 lets the build succeed.

The file starts with:

\input texinfo
@setfilename stabs.info
@setchapternewpage odd
@settitle STABS

@c man begin INCLUDE
@include gdb-cfg.texi
@c man end

@c @finalout

@c This is a dir.info fragment to support semi-automated addition of @c manuals to an info tree.

* Stabs: (stabs).                 The "stabs" debugging information format.
@end direntry
