Package: dpkg Version: 1.4.1.19 The above version of dpkg seems to contain the program install-info, but that version does not understand the option `--dir-file' (it only understands `--infodir').
May I suggest that install-info be extended to grok `--dir-file'? The default Emacs installation process uses that option, for example. Btw, why does Debian use its own install-info binary and not the one from the texinfo package? Just curious... kai -- because I couldn't think of a good beginning.
