are you sure it's 'stuck' --- this might take a while:
#!/bin/sh
rm -f /usr/info/dir
for d in /usr/info /usr/share/info; do
for f in $d/*; do
case "$f" in
*\**)
;;
dir|dir.info*)
;;
*-[0123456789]*)
;;
*)
install-info --quiet $f /usr/share/info/dir ||
install-info --quiet --entry="* $$f ($f): $$f" $$f
/usr/share/info/dir
;;
esac
done
done >/dev/null 2>&1
Try running it by hand & letting it finish, then run setup again w/o
selecting any more packages.
