Hi Christoph,
Note, that the issue arises when `make install` is called.
tar xf automake-1.18.tar.xz && configure --prefix=/tmp/a18 && make install
doesn't run makeinfo for me either. Or make install DESTDIR=/tmp/adest.
I can only surmise that something in your process before the make install
touched one of the .texi files? make --debug or make --trace, as Paul
suggested, is how I usually look for the facts when it comes to
unexpected make things happening. --best, karl.
