Another method would be to do some research by your self:
hille@haka:~$ zless /usr/share/doc/texinfo/changelog.Debian.gz
texinfo (4.8.dfsg.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* first version with split out GFDL licensed documentation into
texinfo-doc-nonfree (Closes: #356916)
* switch to debhelper level 5
* add a README.Debian file explaining where the documentation has gone.

...and then go through the README and the closed bug.
