Well, I don't think you've fixed this RC bug at all: instead, by removing
doc/pinfo.info in debian/rules, you've ensured that makeinfo is required for
*all* builds of the package, and by not adding a build-depends on texinfo,
it will be missing when building on all of the buildds. I think you really
need to add that build-dep.
You may also want to clean up debian/changelog.dch and src/pinforc before
your next upload, I guess.
