It is a tool for automated installation of documentation for the
installed packages.
And the GNU version of install-info is what exactly? The automated
writting of documentation for installed packages? :-) Seriously, I do
not see any difference between GNU's version and Debian's version,
they both install/remove entries from $(infodir)/dir, only that they
do it a bit differently code wise, and option wise.
You give no reason on why Debian needs to keep a less featured version
of install-info that is also incompatible with GNU install-info, which
also is more widly used. Also, it is GNU texinfo that decides what
the dir file should look like, thus GNU's install-info is the
"upstream" version anyway.
