Re: Using GNU's install-info in Debian instead of dpkg's install-info

[Ian Zimmerman <nobrowser@gmail.com>]

One more thing: the longer this thread gets, the more I think that the
original bug is in fact the inclusion of i-i in dpkg.

dpkg is a large and crucially important package, and that means the
maintainers always have something more urgent to do than fixing i-i.  We
should move it into the info package and make the postinstall code
conditional on info being installed.
