Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.
Looking at previous builds logs (like
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/382624327/buildlog_ubuntu-bionic-
amd64.freeipmi_1.4.11-1.1ubuntu4.1_BUILDING.txt.gz), or trying a build
locally on a fresh 18.04 container, I don't see the error message you
mention.
Did you make any other modifications to the package before starting the
build?
I found this in config/missing:
...
makeinfo*)
echo "You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or"
echo "any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual."
echo "You might want to install the Texinfo package:"
...
Maybe that applies to your case?
