What particular command did you try when you experienced the issue?

My guess is that the "install-info" package was missed. It has a trigger 
to update /usr/share/info/dir (index of available info files). Packages 
providing "info-browser" has this package in dependencies, but namely 
"texinfo" does not depend on it.
