Hi there.

jxy is asking me on AUR if I can include the info file of the emacs-org-mode package.

however, an old version of org-mode is now shipped with emacs, thus installing some info files within /usr/share/info.

Is there a policy to address this problem ? Should I overwrite the info files from emacs (bad idea I guess) Should I rename the info file ? Should I just avoid installing the file, as I'm doing now ?

Hello, I have the same problem with my package imaxima in AUR, which is in an older version also included in maxima. I rename the info file and do a sed to reflect the renaming within the info file itself. You can have a look at he PKGBUILD and the install file and do it the same way. Regards Stefan
