Some pre/post installation stuff seems needed.
What about install-info, for example? Maintaining
$(infodir)/dir seems not possible by just using
$ tar -zxvf package_name.tgz
in a dedicated dir in /packages/
My idea is that a special file handler would implement
the info directory file. Implicitly it would do the equivalent
of install-info, on all the installed info files, to produce
the virtual contents of the dir file.
