I tried to stow readline-6.2 and got the following WARNING:

==============================
> stow readline-6.2
Loading defaults from /home/josh/.stowrc
WARNING! stowing readline-6.2 would cause conflicts:
  * existing target is stowed to a different package: share/info/dir => ../../../stow_storage/stow_2.2.0_canonical_paths/share/info/dir
All operations aborted.
==============================

Here is is what that existing target contains:
==============================
> cat ~/local/share/info/dir 
This is the file .../info/dir, which contains the
topmost node of the Info hierarchy, called (dir)Top.
The first time you invoke Info you start off looking at this node.

File: dir,      Node: Top       This is the top of the INFO tree

  This (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics.
  Typing "q" exits, "?" lists all Info commands, "d" returns here,
  "h" gives a primer for first-timers,
  "mEmacs<Return>" visits the Emacs manual, etc.

  In Emacs, you can click mouse button 2 on a menu item or cross reference
  to select it.

* Menu:

System administration
* Stow: (stow).                 GNU Stow.
==============================

How can I resolve this?

Thanks,

Josh
