CC: pacman-dev - We should also automatically compress the info files like
we do the man pages.
That should not be hard, we have this trivial commit since a while:

Do we do something like the following, or do we hardcode the info dirs
as well? It seems odd how we laid this out looking back, where the
DOC_DIRS location is specified but not the mandirs.

Won't that compress e.g. html documentation in ${DOC_DIRS} as well? In
general, that would be bad.
I know the reasons are historical, but from a makepkg point of view, why
are man pages treated as different from info pages? I see a good reason
for treating the rest of documentation different. As far as makepkg is
concerned man and info pages both need treated the same. So should info
be removed from the DOC_DIRS variable? Kind of makes the including docs
by default redundant if we do that though...
