The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:
* texinfo-7.0.1-1
* texinfo-tex-7.0.1-1
* info-7.0.1-1
Texinfo is a documentation system that uses a single source file to produce
output in a number of formats, both online and printed (HTML, PDF, DVI, Info,
DocBook, LaTeX, EPUB 3, etc.).
This is an update to the latest upstream release. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2022-11/msg00036.html
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2022-11/msg00237.html
for a list of changes since the previous release.
Cygwin packaging
================
The info package contains the standalone info viewer as well as the install-info
program. The texinfo package contains everything else except support for the
printable output formats (such as pdf). The texinfo-tex package supplies the
latter. In particular, /usr/bin/texi2any is in the texinfo package, but the
command 'texi2any --pdf' won't work unless you install texinfo-tex.
