We'll work around this +by removing the request for UTF-8 in the affected document. + +An alternate fix would be to call makeinfo like this instead: + +LANGUAGE=C.UTF-8 LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 makeinfo [...] + +--- ./manual/libc.texinfo.orig 2018-02-01 10:17:18.000000000 -0600 ++++ ./manual/libc.texinfo 2018-06-27 13:34:48.901560769 -0500 +@@ -2,7 +2,6 @@ + @comment %**start of header (This is for running Texinfo on a region.) + @setfilename libc.info + @settitle The GNU C Library +-@documentencoding UTF-8 + @c '@codequotebacktick on' and '@codequoteundirected on' require + @c Texinfo 5.0 or later, so use the older equivalent @set variables + @c supported in Texinfo 4.11 and later. |
