Start emacs (running under KDE) 21.4a-3 Type ctl-h i # gets you into the info system Type m exim and hit enter I'm now looking at a window displaying "Specification of the Exim Mail Transfer Agent" Type i filter Emacs beeps immediately and displays "No index" in the one-line window at the bottom.
As far as I can tell, i followed by anything produces this response. exim4-doc-info is now 4.60-2 This system is basically testing, so neither stable nor sid. It does not have exim4 installed. I tried on a similar system with exim4 and got the same results. I looked in the upstream changelog (in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base on the system with exim4), searching on 'info' and 'documen' and didn't turn up anything (e.g., "we turned off the info index because it was giving us trouble").
