Description Lev A. Serebryakov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2003-08-12 12:40:16 UTC 
   New variable INFO in port's makefile allows to automatically
   generate all code for `pkg-plist' to process installed
   info files. But this code assumes, that info files are
   go to ${PREFIX}/info, and this is bad assumption.
   For example, target-specific info files of binutils, gcc, etc.
   could go to ${PREFIX}/${TARGET}/info.
  
   This patch adds INFO_PATH variable, whcich allows to specify
   path for info files inside ${PREFIX}.

As the author of the original INFO= support, I highly recommend this
patch; it looks like an excellent idea and important enhancement.

Just one nit: in the comment for INFO_PATH there is a typo
  equalr /usr and info otherwise
->
  equal to /usr, and info otherwise
