[Bug 1181678] Re: build-error with texinfo 5.1

 

Made to work again in the "Stable Branch" in rev 8387f0170f7b:
    http://hg.code.sf.net/p/enblend/code/rev/8387f0170f7b
Thus, the problem will be solved in the next patch-level,
i.e.  version 4.1.4.

The issue does not apply to "Development Branch" because
Texinfo as source of the documentation was replaced with
pure LaTeX.

Title:
  build-error with texinfo 5.1

Status in Enblend:
  Fix Committed
Status in enblend package in Gentoo Linux:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Hello,

  documentation generation fails with texinfo 5.1.  texinfo seems to have stopped supporting colons in variable names (@set <-> @value), causing errors like this one:
  -----
  doc/enfuse.texi:564: bad syntax for @value
  -----

  According to texinfo 5.1 documentation basically the only thing
  guaranteed to work are alpha-numericals:

  Subsequent characters, if any, may not be whitespace, ‘@’, braces,
  angle brackets, or any of ‘~`^+|’; other characters, such as ‘%’, may
  work. However, it is best to use only letters and numerals in a flag
  name, not ‘-’ or ‘_’ or others—they will work in some contexts, but
  not all, due to limitations in TeX.
