python docs in info format

Hi,

I just tried to build the python docs as info files.
I get something like:

perl -I/home/joze/pub/python/dist/src/Doc/tools
/home/joze/pub/python/dist/src/Doc/tools/html2texi.pl
/home/joze/pub/python/dist/src/Doc/html/api/api.html

Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at
/home/joze/pub/python/dist/src/Doc/tools/html2texi.pl line 1260.

I'm not a perl guru. (Why does python use perl script to format docs)
anyway. Can someone provide the info files ? -- why can they not be
found at http://www.python.org/doc/current/download.html ?


btw.: building html fails also:

../tools/mkmodindex --columns 4 --output modindex.html \
        --address '<hr>See <i><a href="about.html">About this document...</a></i> for information on suggesting changes.' \
        lib/modindex.html mac/modindex.html
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "../tools/mkmodindex", line 122, in ?
    main()
  File "../tools/mkmodindex", line 74, in main
    ifp = open(ifn)
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'lib/modindex.html'
