Hello list,

Attached is yet another attempt at a port of Geomview
(www.geomview.org), a viewer for 3D geometry objects. A couple of the
man pages do not appear to be formatted very well (geomview(5) for
instance), but the majority are fine and the program itself works like a
charm on amd64 (current as of 2 weeks ago). It's been working well and
continuously on my system for many months now (keeping track with
current).

The only problem I'm currently having is the following message when the
package is actually installed:

==========ERR MSG========
install-info: menu item `Geomview' already exists, for file `geomview'
system(/usr/bin/install-info, --info-dir=/usr/local/info, --,
/usr/local/info/geomview-pt_BR) failed: exit(1)
=========================

and a corresponding message when it is uninstalled:

=========ERR MSG========
install-info: warning: no entries found for
`/usr/local/info/geomview-pt_BR'; nothing deleted
========================

I can still run "info geomview-pt_BR" and get something that looks
appropriate, so I would hazard a guess that this has a duplicate entry
somewhere in an install script. Alas having looked around a little, I
can't see anything that's obvious to me (not that I have much experience
with adjusting these things), so I was hoping somebody could point me in
the right direction.

One option would be to remove the info file in question, but I'm not
sure that's the right way to deal with it.

Questions? Comments? Glaring omissions?

Thanks,
Patsy
