3 options:

1. Set this variable to the appropriate path in your init file

;; Info directory
(add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list
          (expand-file-name "/opt/emacs-lisp/share/info"))

2. Add to the INFOPATH variable in your shell profile file:

e.g. (bash)
~/.bash_profile
..
export INFOPATH=/opt/emacs-lisp/share/info:$INFOPATH

3. Edit your Makefile to reflect the proper infopath

# Where local software is found
prefix=/opt/emacs-lisp

..

# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/share/info
