Hi,

Note that the Texinfo requirement wasn't bumped, so nothing changed in
this regard, however, I believe that this is already done, as I see the
following in Makefile.def:

  host_modules= { module= texinfo; no_install= true; };

(... and some relevant logic in configure.ac)


I'm not a fan of building dependencies in-tree, but I can see the
usefulness; I believe a superior solution would be one that adds .info
(et al.) files to all generated tarballs (including snapshots), hence
eliminating any extra deps anyway.  These files aren't system-specific,
after all, as they are neither code nor conditionally compiled.

This is also assumed practice in other packages.

Have a lovely day.
