Yeah. Are you in favor of just dropping --excludedocs and related
features, then? To me, --excludedocs is worth keeping, but the
rest are not.
Personally I'd be happy if a macro were provided and packagers just
had to write
%install-info mypackage.info
and then there's only one place we have to get it right.
