Dear Maintainer,

your package declares a dependency on "install-info". However this dependency
should only be needed for info viewers, as they have to care about updating
the info index.
Your package do not seem to be an info viewer hence the dependency on "install-info"
is not needed. Consider to remove it.

Many thanks,
  Hilmar Preuße
