I'm not familiar with package maintenance so I'll leave that choice to you. The "info" package is not the only one left with this problem, but I'm working on the others.
Actually I've been nagging people for 2 years about the bad security of mailcap and I'm just happy to find someone responsive.
Thanks to you for taking care of it so quickly.

BTW, this bug should have been filed against the "info" binary package, sorry about that.
