I usually run a script like the following after installing packages:
cd /usr/local/share/info # or wherever your info directory is
for i in *info*; do
install-info $i dir
done
Assuming of course that you have install-info (from makeinfo) installed.
There's probably a better way to handle this, but this works for me.
Some of the packages are known to have buggy *.info files that causes
those to be left out of the dir file however.
