texi2dvi and texi2pdf (and texi2any, info and other installed
scripts/binaries) are installed classically, based on ./configure
options, use of DESTDIR...  So my guess is that if texi2pdf is in 
/home/hagbard/Admir/bin/texinfo/bin/, texi2dvi is there too.

texi2pdf is just a wrapper around texi2dvi --pdf.
