debian install-info - A recipe please.



Can someone tell me the standard way to do this using debian
install-info? 

Create my own (as a user) small directory of info files, even just
one, that will be seen by the stand alone info reader.  So that if I
say info My_package it will be displayed.

In the instant case the package is cvs version of tramp.
I've fiddled with the stock debian install-info relentlessly but
haven't found out how to do this chore.

I can see how to insert an entry in /usr/info/dir for tramp.

install-info --section Networking Networking \
             --infodir /usr/info  tramp.info

but this requires root privs.

I know how to do it with gnu install-info, but am researching this in
order to include some pointers in the tramp.info file about how to do
this on debian systems.
