It's /usr/info/dir

Try to fit it those are already there? (Sorry, not the answer
you want... I don't know of such a list).
The easy way I've found to do this is to let debhelper install it
for you (dh_installinfo) and to set the description and section
name in the info file itself, e.g.:
INFO-DIR-SECTION Math
START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
* Gri: (gri). Extensible plotting program designed for scientists
END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
or in the source texinfo file, e.g.:
@dircategory Math
@direntry
* Gri: (gri). Extensible plotting program designed for scientists
@end direntry
