Installation of the info documents generates an error under Mac OS X 10.4.3, apparently due to a malformed use of the install-info command. The relevant shell output is included here.

I think I have seen this problem before. There are two incompatible types of install-info programs, and you are using the one that does not work with ocrad.

install-info (GNU texinfo) 4.8
Usage: install-info [OPTION]... [INFO-FILE [DIR-FILE]]


Also, I didn't know that it's necessary to use install-info and install-man to install the documentation. In my experience, simply using install takes care of this stuff. I would suggest including a note about this in the next release.

Install installs the executable and the info file (see the Makefile). Man page is optional, and in fact is automatically generated from `ocrad --help', so it is installed with install-man. But all this is explained in the INSTALL file.

Antonio.
