If it tells you that it is GNU info, then you've actually called
/usr/bin/install-info and it should — aside from this message — work:
what did you set $infodir to?  Does this directory exist and have the
new info files been copied into it (there may be old files still there,
so please check the date)?

Anyway, from the man pages it looks like this patch should remove the
incompatibility between dpkg install-info and GNU install-info on Debian
and not change anything for others.
