This is probably true but we can't really fix install-info in etch for
example. So I'd suggest to patch makeinfo so that it produces info files
that can be installed by Debian's install-info for at least the lenny
cycle.
Then we can get back to the "new" way and avoid breakages because the new
install-info will be used everywhere. Until then it's best if GNU makeinfo and
Debian's install-info are able to work together.

We hope the same, really.
