--text follows this line--

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I did not have makeinfo installed and configured emacs as usually.
configure finished successfully without any complaints.  No error
appeared during configure.  Then, make worked.  But at the very end
make install aborted complaining that makeinfo was not available.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/opt/gupu/share/emacs/23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

This was reported previously, and I will fix it at some point.
