如何在 macOS 终端命令行上 upgrade/update makeinfo/texinfo 从版本 4.8 到 4.13?

How to upgrade/update makeinfo/texinfo from version 4.8 to 4.13 on macOSX terminal command line?

我已经安装了makeinfo 4.8。命令行键入 $ makeinfo --version returns makeinfo (GNU texinfo) 4.8

我想把版本更新到最新的4.13。我找到了相关信息 here and here。我是指挥新手 line/bash/git...请帮助我,非常感谢!

看这个问题,应该不需要dragonfly(或者git命令):

configure: error: You do not seem to have makeinfo >= 4.13, and your
source tree does not seem to have pre-built manuals in the 'info' directory.
Either install a suitable version of makeinfo, or re-run configure
with the '--without-makeinfo' option to build without the manuals. 

I've tried brew install texinfo and then brew ln texinfo --force and now makeinfo --version shows texi2any (GNU texinfo) 6.3

注意,如 by jmq::

If you use brew to install, make sure you have /usr/local/opt/texinfo/bin in your path, and it is before /usr/bin.
Version 4.8 of this tool on the Mac (10.12.6) is located in /usr/bin/makeinfo.
If this path is in front of the latter, then it will not find the latest version installed by brew.
