[arch-general] Dealing with Info documentation

[Frédéric Perrin]

Hello Archlinux,

I like reading documentation in the Info format (especially when it is
the prefered / only form of documentation). However, Archlinux decides
to strip by default the Info documentation from its packages. I am not
going to contest that decision, but I'd like to install Info docs.

Now, what would be the "good" way to do it ? Installing mannually Info
packages ? Patching and locally rebuilding the packages for which I want
the documentation ? Creating a PKGBUILD that will install a bunch of
docs ? It seems this is the way to go. But what will happen if Arch ever
decides to include Info files, how are conflicting files going to be
handled ?
