Re: [RFA] doc/Makefile.in install



I think, at some point in the distant past, it was controversial
whether packages should install their info files by default.  I think
that was back when disks were much smaller than they are now.
Nowadays most packages install their info by default, so there's no
reason for GDB not to do so as well.
So that's the reason! I knew there was one but couldn't remember what it was.
