	Attempting to install gettext-0.10.35 port produced the following
error message:

===>   Generating temporary packing list
install-info: Undefined error: 0 for /usr/local/info/dir
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.

	The make install command obviously proceed up to that point with no
fatal errors although the same message can be seen at the very start of the
install process.

/bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/info

install-info: Undefined error: 0 for /usr/local/info/dir

	The man page for install-info is lacking of any details about the
purpose of the program or the /usr/local/info/dir file, which is empty.  A
search of the questions, stable and ports mailing list turned up one other
message asking about the same error on the tex port, but there were no
reponses.

	Any ideas?  Another make world to update the install-info program.
Strangely enough, the install-info directory under
/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo/install-info contains only the man page for
install-info.

	Thanks.
