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
