[Debian GNUstep maintainers] Bug#1030386: gnustep-dl2: FTBFS with TeXInfo 7.0.x

[Hilmar Preusse]

Source: gnustep-dl2
Version: 0.12.0-15.1
Severity: important
Tags: ftbfs
Usertags: texinfo70

Dear Maintainer,

the package fails to build from source when using TeX Info 7.0.x. This
happens probably due to this change:

,----
| 7.0 (7 November 2022)
| * texi2any
|  . HTML output:
|      . use manual_name_html as output directory for split HTML instead of
|        manual_name or manual_name.html
`----

A possible solution could be to add the option "--output=(...)" to the
"makeinfo --html" call. Unfortunately I didn't find the makeinfo call in
your source package, hence I can't provide a patch.

For now TeXInfo 7.0 is available in experimental. This bug is not RC
for now, but after bookworm we'll upload TeXInfo 7.0 to unstable and
the bug will become RC.

Hilmar
