If that's texinfo you're talking about, they should go to
${PREFIX}/info.  However, there is a "dir" file already there, and
info.info is already in /usr/share/info, so you may not want to copy
those.

In addition, you would want to call install-info to register it in the 
dir file.  Do you get my (long) mail about this?  If not, I'll send it 
to you.
