OK, so I guess I have to change my spec files to deal with this. 
However, the underlying reason this error has come up is that mock is 
apparently building in a pseudo root environment. Since packages should 
be able to be built without being root, it seems like it would be more 
correct for mock to emulate a user environment. Wouldn't that prevent 
/usr/share/info/dir from being created in the first place? I'm sorry if 
I'm completely misunderstanding mock here.
