Hi

After installing latest coreutils I get the following:

Missing file: /usr/lib/charset.alias from package gettext
gettext                 0.14.1-1             Incomplete
Missing file: /usr/lib/charset.alias from package libiconv
libiconv                1.9.2-1              Incomplete
Missing file: /usr/lib/charset.alias from package texinfo
texinfo                 4.2-4                Incomplete

It seems that texinfo and libiconv accidentally include /usr/lib/charset.alias
which I think should be in gettext.
Good chance to update to the latest texinfo-4.7 and at the same time switch to
FHS standards :-)

Ciao
  Volker
