But that's not the issue. The issue is not with /bin/install, which
basically just copies its argument files, the issue is with
/bin/install-info, which _modifies_ c:/usr/share/info/dir by reading
the Info files, which were copied:
cd ${srcdir}/info ; \
for elt in ${INFO_NONMISC} $${info_misc}; do \
test "$(HAVE_MAKEINFO)" = "no" && test ! -f $$elt && continue; \
for f in `ls $$elt $$elt-[1-9] $$elt-[1-9][0-9] 2>/dev/null`; do \
(cd $${thisdir}; \
${INSTALL_DATA} ${srcdir}/info/$$f $(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$f); \
( [ -n "${GZIP_INFO}" ] && [ -n "${GZIP_PROG}" ] ) || continue ; \
rm -f $(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$f.gz; \
${GZIP_PROG} -9n $(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$f; \
done; \
(cd $${thisdir}; \
${INSTALL_INFO} --info-dir=$(DESTDIR)${infodir}
$(DESTDIR)${infodir}/$$elt); \
done)
That's why you get a different DIR file: because install-info was not
invoked.
Perhaps try installing Info files without compressing them, like this:
make install prefix=/c/usr GZIP_INFO=
Maybe the problem with EOL format only happens when install-info
invokes gzip to decompress the files.
Failing that, I see no other alternative but to use a native port of
Texinfo.
