Here (with gzip 1.2.4-14) the postinst script is for /bin/sh.
I suspect the problem is the line in /etc/zshenv:

    PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:."

which means that every time zsh is used, /usr/sbin gets removed from
the PATH, which is where install-info (a perl script used by the
postinst) is located.

I've commented out this line and put it into /etc/zlogin instead,
which corresponds with setting PATH for bash in /etc/profile.  Maybe I
should file a bug report on zsh for this?
