That seems strange: texi2dvi is part of Texinfo.  But it sounds like 
you've found texi2dvi anyway.

This means that TeX is installed incorrectly: it should be able to find 
a file texinfo.tex in its installation tree (normally, under
/usr/local/share/texmf).

You could try to overcome that by looking for texinfo.tex somewhere on 
your system.  Normally, every Texinfo manual should come with its own 
copy (to avoid problems with incompatible versions), but evidently 
heimdal.texi didn't.  Try looking elsewhere on your system.  If you find 
one, copy it to the same directory where you have heimdal.texi, and then 
try running texi2dvi again.
