If that is the conclusion, please explain in more detail the problem
and its proposed info.el solution, preferably as part of reporting all
this with "M-x report-emacs-bug RET", or, failing that, in an email
sent to address@hidden

I can tell you that I can read the GnuTLS Info manual, which includes
images, in Emacs, and I do see the images where they belong, although
the image files are in the normal /usr/share/info/ directory, together
with the GnuTLS Info files.  Not sure if this is relevant to the issue
at hand (I wasn't following this thread closely enough to tell).

Thanks.
