I think everybody agrees that having to install texinfo.tex separately
is a pain.  However, I do not think that it is possible to do otherwise,
as the TeX installation setup dictates what can be done, and it does not
follow the GNU way -- I believe it predates the GNU way.  In addition
TeX/LaTeX by itself is a very big piece of many softwares.

What would be the other issues associated with texinfo installation?
