Lintian has a check for this since 2009. I would be tempted to close
the bug against Ubuntu emacs23 but for the time being, I simply marked
it as Confirmed, based on the number of reported (and now fixed) tasks
for other packages.
** Changed in: emacs23 (Ubuntu)

Bug description:
Binary package hint: emacs23
When trying to run "info" from emacs 23.1+1-4ubuntu7 I receive the
error "can't find the info directory" and cannot view the info
documentation (it is blank).
Bug#543564 in Debian might be related.
I noticed that emacs-jabber install /usr/share/info/dir.gz. I do not
know if this is correct behaviour (the Debian bug discussion implies
not).
A work around is to gunzip /usr/share/info/dir.gz
