It already should, because it at least should run after "bash" or "ash"
component.

I mentioned install-info, i didn't said anything about _update_info_dir
does install intall-info. I told about postinstall scripts at all,
they uses install-info without checking it on presence and half
scripts just run it like "intall-info" instead of
"/usr/bin/install-info", because PATH IMHO can be unupdated yet for
searchpaths. So i additionally fix postinstall scripts to fit my
needs.
