The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution: * texinfo-6.5-1 * texinfo-tex-6.5-1 * info-6.5-1
Texinfo is a documentation system that uses a single source file to produce output in a number of formats, both online and printed (dvi, html, info, pdf, xml, etc.). This is an update to the latest upstream release. It is primarily a bugfix release. See the announcement at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2017-09/msg00013.html for more details. Cygwin packaging ================ The info package contains the standalone info viewer as well as the install-info program. The texinfo package contains everything else except support for the printable output formats (such as pdf). The texinfo-tex package supplies the latter. In particular, /usr/bin/makeinfo is in the texinfo package, but the command 'makeinfo --pdf' won't work unless you install texinfo-tex.
