[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I have installed automake and installed info files named as:
  * automake-history.info.gz
  * automake.info-1.gz
  * automake.info-2.gz
  * automake.info.gz

But I can't show automake.info.gz correctly.
It looks like:

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

Are you still seeing these issues in recent Emacs versions?  If so, do
you have a recipe, starting from "emacs -Q", that shows this problem?

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
month, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
