I have (among other entries) the following in my /usr/local/info/dir
file:

I'm reinstalling lilypond.info, which contains the following:

======================================================================

INFO-DIR-SECTION GNU music project
START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
* GNU LilyPond: (lilypond/lilypond).           The GNU music typesetter.
* Glossary: (lilypond/music-glossary).                  Glossary of music terms.

END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY

======================================================================

The new info files have already been placed into the
/usr/local/info/lilypond directory.  After saying

  install-info --info-dir=/usr/local/info ./lilypond.info

(being in the directory where the to-be-installed lilypond.info is
located) I get

  install-info: menu item `mup2ly' already exists, for file `lilypond/lilypond'

and nothing happens.

This looks like a bug in install-info.  It probably is confused by the
reordered menu entries.
