Strange. I think that file is used both by info on the command line and
by emacs, so you should get the same index in both.
Anyway, normally the package manager should update the dir file when
packages get installed or removed but that doesn't seem to have happened
on your system for whatever reasons. But you can do that manually, too:
% install-info info-file dir-file
adds an entry for the given info-file in the given dir-file. So you can
do that for the missing files and hopefully that will resolve the issue.
Bye,
