Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2013-03-26 16:31:33 UTC 
Same with a2ps: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5175855
Comment 2 Clark Williams 2013-03-26 18:38:02 UTC 
Does this happen outside of mock?
Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2013-03-27 10:03:23 UTC 
I don't have rawhide installed so I can't say.

However, a mock build succeeded here just now, with the same version of 'info' but a slightly older version of 'emacs-common':
DEBUG util.py:264:   emacs-common          x86_64 1:24.2-12.fc20

So it looks like emacs-24.3-1.fc20 is the package that introduced the conflict.

The package manifests show that emacs-common and info are both trying to ship /usr/share/info/info.info.gz with different content:

Comment 4 Petr Hracek 2013-03-27 10:59:54 UTC 
Problem is in the version emacs-24.3-1.fc20 where are not delivered info pages.
I am working on that.

Soon I will provide SRPM.
Comment 5 Petr Hracek 2013-03-27 12:25:17 UTC 
Info pages where changed from version 24.2 to version 24.3 so that
all info pages have names now like <info_name>.info.gz although in version 24.2 
they had names <info>.gz

This causes problems with info package
Comment 6 Bruno Wolff III 2013-03-27 16:48:23 UTC 
It definitely does happen outside of mock. I have a rawhide machine and this is blocking the install of emacs.
Comment 7 Petr Hracek 2013-03-28 07:59:12 UTC 
On the base of upstream info.info.gz file should be removed from texinfo package.

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2013-03/msg00030.html

This BZ will be reassigned to info package

Comment 10 Pavel Raiskup 2013-04-03 08:48:50 UTC 
I'm thinking about this issue (it still breaks automake build and others in
rawhide) and I agree that info's upstream is giving up maintainership of
info.info page but even then - it is IMO better to have info documentation
packaged in info.

I would suggest here to rename the 'info.info.gz' back to 'info.gz' in emacs if
possible because this is the way it was installed before and it was not causing
any troubles.  Then, user has the 'info' page installed in both packages -
emacs-common & info (but when both are installed, command 'info info' shows the
info.info.gz by default).

Comment 11 Petr Hracek 2013-04-03 15:24:15 UTC 
info.info.gz page was renamed to info.gz as in previous versions
