install-info reported an error (but I am missing the error message).
This means that you will not have an entry for the Gforth manual in
the Info directory file; you should still be able to access the manual
explicitly by name.

I don't know why install-info failed.  Can you run

install-info --version

Hmm, maybe Ubuntu does the same funny thing that Debian does and has
an ancient install-info under that name in dpkg, with an up-to-date
install-info available in the texinfo package under the name
ginstall-info.

In any case, I have tried it with "Debian install-info version
1.13.25", and with "install-info (GNU texinfo) 4.8", and while the
former produces warnings about backups and a problematic dir file, it
does not produce an error.  The latter just works fine.
