What host are you building for? If you are building on a unix (linux,
hpux, aix, solaris, etc), it certainly sounds like you do not have
permission to create /usr/local/info. Either run make install as root or
reconfigure and build using the "--prefix" (and, optionally) the
"--exec-prefix" options to configure. This will allow you to install
into a directory of your choice.
