install-info is smart enough to add at least '.gz' when needed. Hence
the %_extension macro is not needed.

I used
| %__install_info /sbin/install-info --info-dir=%_infodir
| %__install_info_post g() { %__install_info "$@" || :; }; g
| %__install_info_preun g() { %__install_info --delete "$@" || :; }; test "$1" != 0 || g
some time ago. I do not see much sense in the test-for-existence check;
when a packager uses
| %__install_info_post %_infodir/zsh.info
he knows that 'zsh.info' exists there (else, package would be broken).
I am not sure about automatic detection of pre/postun requires; perhaps
a similar approach like for fedora-usermgmt can be chosen and
| %FE_INSTALL_INFO_REQ \
| Requires(pre): %__install_info \
| Requires(postun): %__install_info
defined which is applied like
| BuildRequires: package-with-these-macros
| %{?FE_INSTALL_INFO_REQ}
