Installs under /usr/share/texinfo and seems to use captive Perl
distributions, maybe we should change that (i.e. move
perl-libintl-perl, perl-Text-Unidecode etc. to their own CPAN
derived package).
More importantly, it installs compiled XS modules into /usr/lib/texinfo.
I need to have a look on what the main GNU/Linux distributions are doing
with this.
It's the same on Debian:
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/amd64/texinfo/filelist
I haven't checked any other.
WOuld it be possible to cleanly excise those as dependent
packages?
I could certainly do that, but I wouldn't want to unless there's a
GNU/Linux model to follow. I don't think Cygwin should use special
packaging that no one else uses.
