    . Also try to avoid closely located index entries that begin
      the same, like this:

       @cindex How to Download a RedHat Package
       @cindex How to Download a Fedora Package

      Instead, either make a single index entry, or remove the
      "How to Download" from the entries.

Another approach: Move the general bit after the specific bit.
For example:

 @cindex RedHat Package, How to Download
 @cindex Fedora Package, How to Download

Personally, i'd go one step further and use a gerund:

 @cindex RedHat package, downloading
 @cindex Fedora package, downloading

(This example also shows downcased non-proper-noun words.)
