[arch-dev-public] info pages

Hi all,

Just a heads up with something I have remembered while packaging with 
the new pacman release.  Including docs is the default in makepkg.conf 
now so if there is a large amount of documentation you will want to add 
a !docs to the PKGBUILD options.  Also, every package that needs the 
--mandir configure flag will probably need and --infodir one too.  An 
annoying number of packages with info pages install a 
/usr/share/info/dir file so that will need removed at the end of the 
PKGBUILD.

Cheers,
Allan
