Description:
texi2pdf does nothing when given a valid texinfo file.
texi2dvi is the same.
They return 1 (error code) to the shell, so there is really something wrong out there.
Verbose mode does not help, though...

Additional info:
* package version(s)
texinfo 4.13a-3
texlive-most,
texlive-bin 2009.1 etc.

Steps to reproduce:
You can get a sample texinfo file here:
http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/Short-Sample-Texinfo-File.html#Short-Sample-Texinfo-File

If you copy it to an editor and save it (with .texi extension), you can reproduce the bug by trying to convert it to dvi/pdf using those texi2... tools.
This task depends upon

works here.

Did you ran "sudo fmtutil-sys --all" after you updated texlive?

See http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16076#comment49215
The next release of texlive-core will do fmtutil-sys --all by default during post-upgrade.
