"infocom" was abandoned upstream several years ago. The "Infocom Task Force", who wrote it, has disbanded. The function of this program is entirely replaced by "frotz","xzip", "jzip", and possibly other alternatives. So the package should probably be removed entirely.

"int-fiction"'s sole purpose is as a sort of hacked up version of the alternatives system, ans so should probably be entirely removed too. There should be a dummy package "zcode-interpreter" which is supplied by frotz/xzip/jzip etc., and the 'alternatives' system should be used to select a default zcode interpreter.
