gmake: info documentation not installed

Reported by: jesse.alama@… Owned by: stuartwesterman (Stuart Westerman)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: gmake

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

The texinfo documentation for gmake (@3.82) is present in the port but apparently uninstalled (in the sense of install-info).

$ echo $INFOPATH
/Users/alama/share/info:/opt/local/share/info:/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf/doc/info:/usr/share/info
$ info gmake
[shows the manpage for gmake in the info browser]
$ info
[browser fails to show any entry for make]
$ cat /opt/local/share/info/dir
[shows only two entries coming from the aspell port]

It seems that install-info isn't being invoked when the port is activated.

I am not familiar with how the "info" system works.

".info" files are being installed:

$ port installed gmake
The following ports are currently installed:
  gmake @3.82_1+universal (active)
$ port contents gmake
Port gmake contains:
  /opt/local/bin/gmake
  /opt/local/share/info/make.info
  /opt/local/share/info/make.info-1
  /opt/local/share/info/make.info-2
  /opt/local/share/locale/be/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/fi/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/ga/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/gl/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/he/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/hr/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/id/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/ko/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/lt/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/pl/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/tr/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/uk/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/vi/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
  /opt/local/share/man/man1/gmake.1.gz

However they're not prefixed with "g" like the rest of the files. Should they be?

Do we need to run something in a post-activate block to register these files with the info system? If so, lots of other ports would need this as well.
