There are still interests in your script.
I sent a proposal in April (see the thread
http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2007/04/msg00031.html). You were not
in copy since I think you are subscribed to the Dpkg's mailing list.
I planed to rely on your script for update-info-dir.
I just had a quick look at you script. You are no more using
ginstall-info (nor install-info). Was it really needed? (for performance
issues?)
I'm not sure it would be fine to add another install-info implementation.
IIRC, you had a implementation based on the GNU install-info code. Were
there some problems with this implementation?
Kind Regards,
