Hello,
I have two small questions, I hope they can be answered easily.
1. In the DBTS we got a bug report telling that pod2texi.1 contains
formatting errors [1]. The header of that file reads:
.\" Automatically generated by Pod::Man (Pod::Simple)
.\"
.\" Standard preamble:
As the file is (re)generated I refused to accept the patch.
By looking at a build log [2] however I noticed that the file is not
(re)generated, instead there is a file called pod2texi.1 in your git
source tree. Is the header statement still correct?
2. In Debian we installed the .la files into /usr/lib/texinfo/ until
version 7.1.1 [3]. For the 7.2 packages [4] I skipped them: I could
convert some files using texi2any, so no drawbacks visible until now.
Are these files really needed?
Please keep me in Cc, I'm not subscribed.
Many thanks,
Hilmar
