Re: Installation problem on Debian Sarge: install-data

I consider the case resolved with Adrian's pointer towards kpathsea-dev. 
  This is just for completeness.

I expected what Adrian reported; the sentence was meant to express my 
expectations being met: that the Debian-specific name clashes are 
resolved in Debian's package management.  The second sentence was the 
justification for me posting the note: somewhere upstream of the Debian 
package management, folks (;-) may be interested in knowing of this 
clash (of which I haven't heard anything on the list).

I'm not sure whether --without-texinfo is the thing, since install-info 
is from the dpkg package and not something with 'info' in its name.  The 
libkpathsea-dev package is probably more like it, since it fixes the 
original reason for compiling teTeX.  But I'll try --without-texinfo 
next time around.
