Message-Id: <200302101948.OAA11924@w20-575-19.mit.edu>
To: bugs@MIT.EDU
Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 14:48:26 -0500
From: Shantonu Sen <ssen@MIT.EDU>

System name:		w20-575-19.mit.edu
Type and version:	i686 9.1.24
Display type:		

Shell:			/bin/athena/bash
Window manager:		sawfish

What were you trying to do?
Trying to read the info page for "kpathsea"

What's wrong:
The default dotfiles in /usr/athena/lib/init don't
set INFOPATH, and thus info cannot find all the info
files on the system

What should have happened:
INFOPATH should be set to /usr/athena/info:/usr/share/info
(or whatever is appropriate for the platform), and
info kpathsea should show the right files

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
