Because of Debian policy documentation covered by FDL license with invariant sections is not allowed in packets repository tree. So it must be installed manually.
You can set INFOPATH
env var in your ~/.profile
, but I done this in .emacs in such way:

(unless (getenv "INFOPATH")
(setenv "INFOPATH" "~/usr/share/info:"))
This code also useful as manually builded software I configure like this:
$ configure --prefix=$HOME/use
so their info documentation automatically become available in Emacs Info system.
