'info' relies on a file named 'dir' (typically, in /usr/info).
The _update-info-dir package attempts to generate this. You
should find a script in /etc/postinstall/ named
'update-info-dir.sh.done.' Try re-running that script. It
might provide clues about what is wrong with your system
configuration.
