I just installed aalib1-dev to check for myself, and this is the entry I
found:

* AA-lib: (aalib).         An ASCII-art graphics library

`info aalib' doesn't work, but `info aa-lib' (or `info AA-lib') does.

Sorry, I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug :) I don't think the info
dir file has a strictly defined syntax... there was a similar problem with
the "* Menu: " thing once.
