Hi ! I was wondering where -doc packages should put their documentation files. Should the foo-doc package put them in /usr/share/doc/foo/ or in /usr/share/doc/foo-doc/? I had a look at the different -doc packages that are installed on my system. Most of them put their doc in /usr/share/doc/foo-doc/ but a few one put their doc in /usr/share/doc/foo/. I think it would be much better if all the -doc packages could behave the same way. However, I didn't find anything in the policy saying where these docs should be. So I guess there is no reason to file bug reports against any of these packages. Should I ask for something to be added to the policy? Regards, Nicolas foo-doc packages that put doc in /usr/share/doc/foo/: * apache-doc * dpkg-doc * perl-doc * tetex-doc foo-doc packages that put doc in /usr/share/doc/foo-doc/: * kernel-doc * debiandoc-sgml-doc * glibc-doc * gnupg-doc * libgimpprint-doc * libgtk1.2-doc * lilo-doc * make-doc * ntp-doc * nut-doc * parted-doc * samba-doc
