So, what we should do, if we are going to add this into * bsd.port.mk, is to gzip the files after install-info. (And maybe we * should introduce new variable NOINFOCOMPRESS like NOMANCOMPRESS.) Or we could/should fix install-info? :) BTW, the reason why I didn't add the stuff into bsd.port.mk is (as I wrote in the handbook and mails to this list) because the porter has to do some of the stuff (in PLIST) by hand anyway. And then there are issues with Japanese texinfo sources, which can't be processsed by our makeinfo (and thus require two additional arguments to install-info). If someone shows me an easy and safe way to modify PLIST so that we can add stuff in there as well, please let me know. Note the "easy and safe" part -- I know it can be done, I just don't want to add even more hackery to bsd.port.mk. (Also, the PLIST may not be called "PLIST" and could be auto-generated, etc.) Satoshi
