Thanks, arrived intact. Ok, the problem is really with the two strangely garbled entries. When you remove the Ada mode and maplev entries the info file is suddenly recognized as utf8 and everything works. Hmmm, that is strange. Calling ginstall-info /usr/share/info/emacs-23/ada-mode.gz ./dir adds a proper entry. Can it be that the dir file was somehow hosed? Can you run (as root) mv /usr/share/info/dir /usr/share/info/dir.saved update-info-dir and check whether the created dir file is again broken? And if yes, can you send me *your* copy of ada-mode.gz from the info directory/emacs-23?
