Why does install-info not get called for Debian?

[Noah Slater]

Hello,

I notice that the Makefile generated by Automake refuses to call
install-info if the --version output indicates it is the Debian
version.

Why is this? I would like install-info to be called on Debian and Ubuntu.

Thanks,

Noah
