Package: tetex-bin
Version: 1.0.6-4
The package tetex-bin, version 1.0.6-4, contains the file
/usr/share/info/dir.gz
However, this file is unused since install-info maintains the file
/usr/share/info/dir, which shadows /usr/share/info/dir.gz. It is
confusing to have an unused dir.gz and tetex-bin seems not to be the
right package to host such a system-wide file, if at all.

* do not install /usr/share/info/dir (closes: Bug#61733)
So this bug has gone.
