Edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/glame.prerm like this:

=== cut ===
#!/bin/sh
set -e
# Automatically added by dh_installinfo
if [ "$1" = remove ] || [ "$1" = upgrade ]; then
    install-info --quiet --remove /usr/share/info/glame.info || true
fi
# End automatically added section
# Automatically added by dh_installinfo
if [ "$1" = remove ] || [ "$1" = upgrade ]; then
    install-info --quiet --remove /usr/share/info/glame-dev.info || true
fi
# End automatically added section
=== cut ===
