Lintian tag: package-contains-info-dir-file
Type: error
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
This package contains a file named dir or dir.old, possibly compressed, in
/usr/share/info. This is the directory (or backup) of info pages and is
generated automatically by install-info when a package containing info
documentation is installed. Some upstream build systems create it
automatically, but it must not be included in a package since it needs to
be generated dynamically based on the installed info files on the system.
