The file was in tetex-bin until version 2.0.2-31, now it is in texinfo. We didn't consider the situation where texinfo (>=4.8) is installed before tetex-bin, and I'm not even sure what the correct solution would have been; maybe a conflicts is needed in the texinfo package. Since tetex-bin in unstable doesn't have the file, the bug exists only in testing, and can only be solved when tetex-bin_3.0 gets into testing. As a quick fix for you, you can uninstall texinfo, then install tetex-bin, and install texinfo again afterwards. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ. Zürich Debian Developer
