System: FreeBSD wwweasel.geeksrus.net 4.5-STABLE FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE #0: Mon Mar 11 00:59:22 EST 2002 root@wwweasel.geeksrus.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WWWEASEL i386

>Description:

1. print/texinfo is obsolete, and a troublemaker. it installs (obsolete)
print/tex as a dependency, which will screw up a teTeX install.

2. cad/pcb has the only dependency on print/texinfo.

3. cad/pcb does NOT require print/texinfo; teTeX is sufficient.

4. cad/pcb is BROKEN, even though it is not marked as such: it depends
on both print/texinfo and print/teTeX; the only thing that will be
accomplished by building it is trashing your teTeX installation by
putting print/tex and print/texinfo on top of it.

As maintainer of print/texinfo, I request that print/texinfo be deleted.

Please apply the patch to remove the print/texinfo dependency from
cad/pcb, which makes it safe to build/install again.

Note: cad/pcb has no maintainer. That does not change.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:

Delete print/texinfo.
