What were you trying to do?
Look up something in the Emacs info index: C-h i m Emacs i RET
What's wrong:
Emacs displays:
"No such anchor in tag table or node in tag table or file: Key Index"
Manually selecting the "Key Index" node also fails. All the nodes between
"Glossary" and "Option Index" (inclusive) fail this way.
What should have happened:
The Key Index should have appeared in the *info* buffer.
I'm not well-versed in the format and creation of info files, but at a
glance, the /usr/athena/info/emacs file on a 9.1 system is very large (900k)
compared to the corresponding file on a 9.0 system (16k), and does not
contain the "Indirect" or "Tag Table" sections at the end.
The 9.1 version starts with:
This is Info file ../info/emacs, produced by Makeinfo version 1.68
where the 9.0 version starts with:
This is ../info/emacs, produced by makeinfo version 4.0
which also seems suspicious.
