DetailsDocumentation stripping is now off by default, so packages should install extra documentation in /usr/share/doc and /usr/share/info. The bash package, however, is patched to prevent make from installing the info files. I've built my own package without the patch, but it would be great if the official package could be updated to match the current docs policy.

Two files: a quick-and-dirty, works-for-me patch for the PKGBUILD and an associated .install file. Note that there's an extra dep: texinfo. This turns out to be unavoidable (we need the install-info command), but quite a few essential packages already require texinfo (ed, which, m4), so that shouldn't be a huge issue.

Last bash update was in August which was I think before we decided to install info files and the like. Documentation is only added when updating/rebuilding a package for normal reasons, not for the sake of adding documentation.

I will commit the changes to svn trunk, so they are not forgotten for the next rebuild
