Mmm, well. install-info is "currently" ok. In fact, we should not move the dir file until every package using the --infodir option in a hardcoded way has disappeared from the archive. A lintian test for this would be more than welcome. During the transition period, more and more packages will use /usr/share/info instead of /usr/info. The `dir' file will only be moved when we are confident enough that a package using --infodir will not mess it all. Thanks. -- "3b69b65086b7e0ef8a849850c2d9cefd" (a truly random sig)
