The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* texinfo-6.8-1
* texinfo-tex-6.8-1
* info-6.8-1

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.  See

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2021-07/msg00011.html

for a list of changes since the previous release.

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.
