This sounds suboptimal. Can't you use a common figures directory
with a name that includes the name of your package, e.g. gnupdf/ or
gnupdf-figures/?
That would make it difficult to decouple the manuals after they get
installed. Having gnupdf-arch.texi looking into gnupdf-arch-figures/
and gnupdf-hg.texi looking into gnupdf-hg-figures/ makes it possible
to relocate/copy/delete a deployed manual in a easy way.

For LilyPond info documentation, "make install-doc" creates
${info_dir}/lilypond/, which is a symlink to the subdirectory of
isntalled HTML docs tree which contains the images.
Ah, thanks for the info.
Incidentally the lilypond-doc Debian package is creating an empty
${info_dir}/lilypond directory. I will report this.
