Yes.  The install-info command creates a info/dir file in the  
destdir, and this file is not known by the file list.  Hence,  
rpmbuild complains about an extra, unknown file in that directory.  I  
think the problem has been there for a while, though, at least when I  
tried this same thing back in March on a Fedora Core 6.

The fix I proposed consists on removing info/dir after the install- 
info command so that the package needn't care about that file.  But  
the question is: does SuSE require that file to be present in the  
package (because the problem doesn't seem to exist on it)?  Or does  
it behave correctly even if it is not there?

Thanks,
