Thanks Christian. Now that we know the problem we can probably fix it. Maybe,
as Ken suggests, the build can be made to provide an error message if the
version is too old.

Subject: [liblouis-liblouisxml] Re: Build broken for liblouis
Hi all
I'm to blame for this. When working on the documentation I noticed that you can
greatly simplify the boilerplate when writing the documentation by making use
of a feature that is only available in texinfo 5.0 and up.
Since version 5.0 of texinfo is almost two years old now and comes with Ubuntu
LTS I thought it was a safe choice.
But then I ran into problems on the Travis CI server which rebuilds liblouis
for every change (https://travis-ci.org/liblouis/liblouis),
since it has the old Ubuntu LTS with texinfo 4.x. So I install texinfo
5.0 as part of the build (see .travis.yml at
https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/blob/master/.travis.yml).
You could do the same, i.e. install a new texinfo or we could go back to the
old version of the documentation although I really have a hard time getting
excited about that.
Thanks
Christian
