Shouldn't it go in /usr/share/info so that "info" can find it?  Currently,
I get:

$ info singular
info: No menu item 'singular' in node '(dir)Top'

Compression can by avoided by overriding dh_compress.  Policy section 12.2 says
that info files "should" be compressed, but I think this might warrant an
exception to policy's recommendation.
