Subject: [PATCH] remove Makefile target install-info-debian, modify
 install-info to be compatible

* Makefile: remove target install-info-debian and modify target
  install-info so that it is compatible with the older dpkg version
  of install-info that resides in /usr/sbin and may be picked up
  when root is installing info files

Initial reporting by Jude DaShiell, suggestions for changing Makefile
by Nick Dokos.  The solution implemented re-arranges the arguments to
install-info to be compatible with both the dpkg and GNU version of
the program.  On Debian, /usr/bin/install-info is actually a wrapper
that calls /usr/bin/ginstall-info and issues the following warning
when called as root:

This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info
See the man page for ginstall-info for command line arguments

This warning can be safely ignored since we actually prefer that GNU
install-info is called even though we've arranged the arguments to
be compatible with dpkg install-info.

Tested on openSuSE Tumbleweed, Win7/Pro (both MSys and Cygwin) and by
Jude DaShiell on Debian Squeeze and Slackware.

 Installing Info files is system dependent, because of differences in the
-@file{install-info} program.  In Debian it copies the info files into the
-correct directory and modifies the info directory file.  In many other
-systems, the files need to be copied to the correct directory separately, and
-@file{install-info} then only modifies the directory file.  Check your system
-documentation to find out which of the following commands you need:
+@file{install-info} program.  The following should correctly install the Info
+files on most systems, please send a bug report if not@footnote{The output
+from install-info (if any) is also system dependent.  In particular Debian
+and it's derivatives use two different versions of install-info and you may
