install-docs in prerm problem
Folks, make sure your prerm scripts don't fail if the install-docs doesn't
want to uninstall docs that aren't installed.
I had developers-reference installed, but not doc-base. Installed doc-base,
then tried to upgrade developers-reference, and the prerm refused to work,
because it wasn't registered with install-docs.
Now, this isn't much of a problem for me; I can edit the prerm file myself
and make it work. However, I don't expect production packages to need low
level fixes like this, which are inappropriate for non-developers to need
to use.
