'info bash' command not found

I just installed Docker, and ran 'help'.



One of the lines in Help mentioned:




Use `info bash' to find out more about the shell in general.




I ran 'info bash' and I get:




bash: info: command not found




What am I doing wrong?



EDIT: The commands are not found. I am starting to think my Docker install is incomplete, but their "docker run hello-world" test completed just fine.

  • Type info first and a screen of commands should appear; use the down arrow or scroll with the mouse and press enter on the line which says * bash...

    If a command is not found with arguments, then it will also not be found without arguments

  • If you're getting the image from Docker Hub, what is its name?

You are missing the texinfo package.



If you're using Linux, simply install it using



yum install texinfo


Or get the RPM and install it using



rpm -i <package-name>


If you're using MacOS, install using



brew install textinfo
