Subject: bug#1118: 23.0.60; Info claims no index exists if first instance of an info file is visited via info-lookup-symbol
Date: Wed, 08 Oct 2008 09:44:30 +0100

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.4 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
 of 2008-10-07 on lamacq.ph.ed.ac.uk
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.60802000
configured using `configure  '-C' '--prefix=/scratch/s0198183/applications/emacs-trunk/' 'CFLAGS=-ggdb3 -O0' '--without-rsvg''

emacs -Q
C-h i d m Elisp RET
i set-text-properties RET

takes me to the set-text-properties entry in the Elisp manual (as
expected).

emacs -Q
C-h S add-text-properties RET ; use info-look to find add-text-properties
C-x b *info* RET              ; switch to info buffer
i                             ; try to lookup something in the index

complains "No index"

Cheers,
Lawrence
