It's been the case since day 1 that the "presented" dir in info readers
(both emacs and standalone) is the concatenation of all found dir files.
So it doesn't make much sense to me to regard that as a bug at this late
date.  Or anything to be gained by doing so.

So, I agree with Eli, guix should just ignore dir.  Certainly choosing
one at random as "the" dir file is the worst possible outcome.

Thanks,
Karl
