Description Ross Burton 2013-03-01 23:51:23 UTC 
/usr/share/info/dir isn't meant to be shipped in a particular package, but should be generated at install time in a postinst.

To avoid the problem of documentation packages conflicting each other over this file, it's presence should be checked for in the QA tests and warned about.
