My chroot does not have texinfo installed:
test at build:~$ dpkg -l | grep texinfo
test at build:~$ which makeinfo
test at build:~$
This makeinfo thing is very mysterious to me. Sometimes it complains
it's missing, sometimes not. I've never been able to really understand
what happens.
I am wondering if some packages don't bundle the pre-generated
documentation in their tarball, but sometimes have the pre-generated
files with an older date than the source files, which causes the
documentation to be generated once again. But that's really just a
guess.
