Package: install-info
Version: 4.13a.dfsg.1-5
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

When testing d-i, if there are no info documents unpacked by the time something
calls update-info-dir, the entire d-i base install process fails.
It would be much better if update-info-dir at least checked that
/usr/share/info
exists as a directory (creating it if not) and not worry about the dir file as
it only moves it aside as dir.old anyway.

This is a particular problem with the use of d-i for Emdebian and it would be
very much appreciated if this could be fixed for Squeeze
