Bug#62352: /usr/doc and /usr/share/doc confusion
Package: general
Version: potato
New documentation is being installed in /usr/share/doc (whereas it was
installed in /usr/doc in the slink release)
This is fine, except that the default apache config still sets /doc/
URLs to /usr/doc
My system now has documentation in both /usr/doc (from slink) and
/usr/share/doc (from potato) -- sometimes for the same package (e.g.,
xserver_s3)
The dhelp package indexes all this nicely, but the URLs generated are
not useable by apache.
My solution at present is manually to delete documentation from
/usr/doc that is duplicated in /usr/doc and in /usr/share/doc, rename
stuff in /usr/doc to /usr/share/doc, and then to symlink
/usr/share/doc to /usr/doc
But this is UGLY.
