Re: egrep, fgrep, and install-info

[Alfred M. Szmidt]

   2) For 'install-info', what would be the replacement? Even though
   Automake knows how to handle its absence [1], it would be good to
   know.

On systems where install-info is lacking, we simply don't install a
node entry in the dir file and continue with the post-install.  This
is a slightly different behaviour than what we have for other programs
which we generally consider a hard error.  E.g., if you don't have
grep -E, and no egrep or some other such ... you're shit outta luck.
