Dear Maintainer,

Upon running

apt-get install --reinstall --purge dpkg install-info

It said that it could not configure install-info, "probably due to a
depency cycle". However it worked fine when I reinstalled each individually.
This is however making some installation scripts I have fail, because they
expect some of the software to be in a tree. Is this by design?
