Provides translations for the "info" package.
GPL-3.0-or-later
* Wed Sep 17 2025 Jan Fooken <jan.fooken@suse.com>
- Move htmlxref.cnf to makeinfo package, as it is used by texi2any
* Tue Sep 16 2025 Jan Fooken <jan.fooken@suse.com>
- Revert to using vendored versions of perl-libintl-perl and
perl-Unicode-EastAsianWidth, because both are not part of
openSUSE:Factory:Rings:0-Bootstrap
- Explicitly include dependencies from perl-libintl-perl, as they
are not pulled in via the package
- Replace distribution provided version of perl-Text-Unidecode with
vendored version to have a consistent approach to dependencies
* Thu Sep 11 2025 Jan Fooken <jan.fooken@suse.com>
- Remove explicit setting of LANG. The build environment uses
C.UTF-8, so a UTF-8 locale is ensured
* Thu Sep 11 2025 Jan Fooken <jan.fooken@suse.com>
- Add dependencies for texi2dvi and texindex. Both programs had
missing or non-explicit dependencies on various shell utilities.
Furthermore, texi2dvi has execution statements for dvipdfmx,
dvips, biber and thumbpdf, but the spec didn't require these
programs
* Thu Sep 11 2025 Jan Fooken <jan.fooken@suse.com>
- Use distribution versions of perl-libintl-perl and
perl-Unicode-EastAsianWidth over the versions included in
texinfo's source tree
- Remove dependency on perl-gettext. It's not required anymore,
because gettext is now implicitly pulled in by perl-libintl-perl
- Add missing build dependency on gawk
- Add missing test dependencies for the parser tests, which would
be skipped otherwise
- Add explicit dependency on the perl module Unicode::Normalize
It's provided by perl, but if it's missing, it wouldn't fail the
configuration, but introduce erroneous behaviour, so an explicit
dependency doesn't hurt
* Fri Sep 05 2025 Jan Fooken <jan.fooken@suse.com>
- Update to version 7.2 (23 December 2024)
* Build
. "make install" installs files for texi2any under $datadir/texi2any, not
$datadir/texinfo.
* texinfo.tex
. use @ as the escape character in all index files. this requires
new enough texi2dvi (Texinfo 6.7, 2019) for index files to be
properly processed.
. a bug has been fixed where a mangled PDF outline could be produced for
a document using @unnumberedsec
. you can call @unmacro with an undefined macro name, matching the
behavior of texi2any
* texi2any
. set CHECK_NORMAL_MENU_STRUCTURE by default. this means texi2any
again checks menu structure by default (changed in 6.8 release, 2021).
. only allow @definfoenclose to be used to redefine highlighting commands
. sorting of indices is now independent of the input or output encodings
. new customization variable COLLATION_LANGUAGE to allow linguistic
tailoring of index sorting
. new variable DOCUMENTLANGUAGE_COLLATION to use @documentlanguage for
linguistic tailoring of index sorting
. new variable USE_UNICODE_COLLATION to allow turning off the slower
use of Unicode collation when sorting indices
. rename BODYTEXT customization variable to BODY_ELEMENT_ATTRIBUTES
. rename COMPLEX_FORMAT_IN_TABLE customization variable to
INDENTED_BLOCK_COMMANDS_IN_TABLE
. remove the following variables: AVOID_MENU_REDUNDANCY, FRAMES,
FRAMESET_DOCTYPE, NO_USE_SETFILENAME, SILENT, USE_UP_NODE_FOR_ELEMENT_UP
. remove SIMPLE_MENU variable and tree transformation
. the use of the directories ~/.texinfo and ~/.texi2any for configuration
files is deprecated, and should be replaced by texinfo or texi2any
directories under XDG_CONFIG_HOME (usually ~/.config/). the new
locations are compatible with the XDG Base Directory Specification.
in future versions, the ~/.texinfo and ~/.texi2any directories will
not be in search paths.
. do not try the us-ascii encoding anymore as a locale for translated
document strings.
. some unused translation files have been removed for the
`texinfo_document' domain
. Info output:
. output Info-documentlanguage in Local Variables section of output
file if @documentlanguage is given
. HTML, Texinfo and raw text output:
. an implementation of the conversion in C has been included, which
is much faster than the code in Perl. set the `TEXINFO_XS_CONVERT'
environment variable to 1 to use.
. HTML output:
. CHECK_HTMLXREF set by default for warnings about links to unknown
external manuals
. you can use the MATHJAX_CONFIGURATION customization variable to add
data to the MathJax configuration object
. warn if there is a .inf or .info suffix for cross-reference manual
. use <pre> instead of <div><em> for output of @displaymath
. remove border, cellpadding, cellspacing and align attributes. add
classes and use CSS when needed.
. EPUB output:
. stricter conformance for conformance checkers
* info
. check for init file under XDG_CONFIG_HOME/texinfo/infokey after
checking ~/.infokey, in accordance with the XDG Base Directory
Specification
* Distribution
. automake 1.17, autoconf 2.72, gettext 0.22.5, libtool 2.5.3
- Update patches to compile for the new version
- texinfo-perl-5.42.patch
- texinfo-zlib.patch
- Fix texinfo-zlib.patch
texinfo-zlib.patch had the wrong variable referenced in the error check for
reopening a file. Furthermore, it could potentially have leaked the memory a
string. Both are minor bugs and very unlikely to occour
* Mon Jul 14 2025 Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Add texinfo-perl-5.42.patch: Fix syntax to be unambiguous
if (! $str eq '') is not really clear; is it
(!$str) eq ''
or
!($str eq '')
Perl 5.42 rightly flagges this syntax with:
Possible precedence problem between ! and string eq
Assuming !($str eq '') was meant, we can rewrite this as
$str ne '', which happens to also be used in multiple places
already (sometimes just a few lines further down in the same
files)
* Fri Apr 04 2025 Friedrich Haubensak <hsk17@mail.de>
- add -std=gnu17 to CFLAGS to fix gcc15 compile time error
(flag can be dropped w/ release 7.2)
* Fri Feb 02 2024 Dr. Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>
- Update to version 7.1 (18 October 2023)
* Language
. new generic definition commands, @defblock, @defline and @deftypeline,
for definitions without automatic index entries
. new @linemacro facility eases use of generic definition commands
. new command @link creates plain links (supported output formats only)
. @cartouche takes an argument to specify the cartouche title
. you can use the new commands @nodedescription and @nodedescriptionblock
to give text to be used in menu descriptions in Info and HTML output
* texi2any
. @itemx at the beginning of a @table is now an error, not a warning
. better validity checking of deeply nested commands
. check that @set and @clear only appear at the start of a line
. warn about missing menu entries even if CHECK_NORMAL_MENU_STRUCTURE is
not set. you can turn this off by setting CHECK_MISSING_MENU_ENTRY to 0.
. no longer use --enable-encoding and --disable-encoding to determine
whether to output encoded characters (instead of entities or commands)
for HTML, XML, DocBook and LaTeX; instead, use the value of the
OUTPUT_CHARACTERS customization variable.
. stricter checks on input encoding, in particular more warnings and
errors with malformed UTF-8
. support any input file encoding if support exists in the operating
system, not just a selected list of encodings
. resolve an alias referring to another alias at definition time
. internally, use "source marks" to keep all Texinfo source information that
is not in the final tree (location of macros, values and included files
expansion, @if* blocks, DEL comment, and @ protecting end of line on @def*
lines)
. HTML output:
. format @subentry and index entries with @seealso or @seeentry in a more
similar way to printed output
. output @shortcontents before @contents by default
. omit colons after index entries by default. this can still be
configured with INDEX_ENTRY_COLON.
. add @example syntax highlighting as a texi2any extension
. no more capitalization of @sc argument in HTML Cross-references
. change @point expansion to U+22C6 in HTML Cross-references
. if a @node is not associated with a sectioning command but is
followed by a heading command not usually associated to nodes
such as @heading and this command appears before other formatted
content, the heading command is assumed to supply the node heading.
you can customize this with USE_NEXT_HEADING_FOR_LONE_NODE.
. Info output:
. new variable ASCII_DASHES_AND_QUOTES, on by default,
outputs ASCII characters for literal quote or hyphen characters
in source, rather than UTF-8. this makes it easier to search
Info files.
. new ASCII_GLYPH variable for using ASCII renditions for glyph
commands (like @bullet)
. ASCII_PUNCTUATION still includes the effect of these new variables.
. new variables AUTO_MENU_DESCRIPTION_ALIGN_COLUMN and AUTO_MENU_MAX_WIDTH
control the format of descriptions in generated menus
. XML output:
. place menu leading text and menu separators in elements instead
of attributes
* texi2dvi
. macro expansion with texi2any requires at least version 5.0 (only
happens with --expand option or with very old texinfo.tex)
* texinfo.tex
. in @code, ` and ' output by default with backtick and undirected
single quote glyphs in the typewriter font. you can still configure
this using the @codequoteundirected/@codequotebacktick commands.
. do not insert a space for @ def line continuation, matching the behavior
of texi2any
. align section titles in table of contents when more than 10 sections
. microtype is off by default, for speed
. page headings generation is no longer linked to the @titlepage command
* info
. when going Up, position cursor on menu entry for current node
. allow mouse scrolling support regardless of termcap entries. this
supports some more xterm configurations.
. do not use "/index" as a possible file extension for Info files
* texi2any
. fix performance regression when Perl binary extension (XS) modules
are not being used (e.g. with TEXINFO_XS=omit)
* info
. further fix of recoding of UTF-8 files to ASCII to avoid text
disappearing from nodes
. avoid possible freeze at start of a file with `-v nodeline=pointers'
* texi2any
. do not distribute architecture-dependent files
. build fixed on OpenIndiana 11
* info
. further fix of recoding of UTF-8 files to ASCII
. fix check for presence of man pages on Solaris
* install-info
. fix build by avoiding function name clash on some platforms
. compiler warning re strncat silenced
* texi2any
. avoid crashes on empty @image argument and other potential crashes
(with "Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference" message)
. avoid hang on @ref command inside section command
* info
. fix recoding of UTF-8 files to ASCII when run in C locale
* js
. index search fixed for new HTML output
. some obsolete files removed from distribution
