[Python-Dev] building python info documentation

The info docs cannot be built with the current 2.1/2.2 and HEAD
branches.

I found updated versions of the conversion scripts at:

http://pag.lcs.mit.edu/~mernst/software/#html2texi
http://pag.lcs.mit.edu/~mernst/software/#checkargs

with http://pag.lcs.mit.edu/~mernst/software/python-info-Makefile from
the same site I get a step further ... but get:

emacs -batch api.texi --eval '(progn (goto-char (point-min)) (while
(re-search-forward "\\(@setfilename \\)\\([-a-z]*\\)\n" nil t)
(replace-match "\\1python-\\2.info\n")) (while (search-forward "@node
Front Matter\n@chapter Abstract\n" nil t) (replace-match "@node
Abstract\n@section Abstract\n" nil t)) (progn (mark-whole-buffer)
(texinfo-master-menu (quote update-all-nodes))) (save-buffer))'
End of file during parsing

Is there an updated version available, which works for the python2.2
info files as well?


btw, who is pdm/pdm, who builds the info tarballs for download?
