Re: address@hidden: Texinfo source tar missing source?]

[Karl Berry]

Hello Gunnar,

Thanks for the report.

    Page: http://www.gnu.org/manual/texinfo
    Link: http://www.gnu.org/manual/texinfo/texi/texinfo.txi.tar.gz

I don't know who created this .tar.gz, but it wasn't me.  The /manual/
subtree is created by other volunteers, and I don't know who they are.

    Sorry to bother you. I tried to download the original
    source for texinfo to be able to generate a A4 version

In any case, this isn't the original source.  If you download the source
distribution from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-4.1.tar.gz, both
the manual source (texinfo.txi) and the macro file (texinfo.tex) are
included.

Finally, I expect to make another release shortly, hopefully sometime
next week, with one significant change to the way copying permissions
are handled.  So you may want to hold off on printing out the 200+ page
manual a few more days.

Thanks,
karl
