configure checks for the release of the installed makeinfo/texinfo. It
only recognizes releases from the 4 series in the range 4-9.
configure.ac:
...
if ${MAKEINFO} --version \
| egrep 'texinfo[^0-9]*([1-3][0-9]|4\.[4-9]|[5-9])' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
...
this should be changed to
...
if ${MAKEINFO} --version \
| egrep 'texinfo[^0-9]*([1-3][0-9]|4\.(4|5|6|7|8|9|11)|[5-9])'
>/dev/null 2>&1; then
...
Kind regards,
Ado
