There's a couple of things I can think of. First off, is there an
"emacs-doc" package for Centos? If so, is it installed?
Honestly, I don't think this is the problem, since emacs' info
file should be part of the emacs package, but it's easy to check:
yum list emacs-\* | grep -i doc
Next, check in "/usr/share/info" for the file "emacs.info". If it
isn't there, try re-installing emacs. If it is there, check the
same directory for the file "doc", which is the top-level node for
Info. It should have the lines:
Emacs
* Emacs: (emacs).
(possibly more) in there, under Editors.
Beyond that, I'm lost.
I hope this helps.
