FWIW, the modified debhelper doesn't bother me at all; that's what free
software's all about.
But your last sentance completly ignores the entire /usr/share/doc
transition problem. Since I have repeatedly tried to explain this problem
until I am utterly sick of doing so, including while you were present in the
flesh, as well as on these lists and on IRC, do you really not get it still,
or are you just choosing to ignore it?
A hint: nobody ever claimed building packages that used /usr/share/doc would
be a problem. In fact, as long ago as 2 years, people were confident
debhelper would handle that part of the transition very easily. That's not
the problem. Do you know what the problem is?
(If not I may have to try to explain it one more time. Bleh.)
