That's surprising. Can you check to see whether there is indeed a
maxima-index.lisp in that directory? I just built from the master branch
with
./configure --with-sbcl --prefix=/home/rupert/tmp/maxima
make
make install
and, looking at the results, I get:
rupert at skate ~/t/m/s/info> pwd
~/tmp/maxima/share/info
rupert at skate ~/t/m/s/info> ls
dir maxima-index.lisp maxima.info-1 maxima.info-3
imaxima.info maxima.info maxima.info-2 xmaxima.info
A bit of poking around with ":lisp (...)" lines shows that it's loading
up the file from
/home/rupert/tmp/maxima/share/info/./maxima-index.lisp
which seems to work...
