see #62

@jeremyd2019 could this potentially work/improve things?

I didn't know about the ability to so easily override hooks like this. I was contemplating doing what I would have done with dpkg, dpkg-diverting /usr/bin/install-info.exe and replacing it with true.exe, but I was concerned that would break the pacman -Qkq check.

I could add this hack to my setup script instead, like the DatabaseNever one, since it is just a setup-specific hack...

I've manually created empty /etc/pacman.d/hooks/texinfo-{install,remove}.hook on the runner to test this

Qkq doesn't check checksums, only that they exist, but Qkkq does (and we fixed the checksum generation some months ago, so this fails for all older packages). So that's still possible.

Either way, closing this then, and thanks for trying it on the runner.
