Is this still valid?



Hi

I just wonder if this lintian error is still applicable?

W: harden-tools: prerm-does-not-remove-usr-doc-link
N:
N:   The technical committee chose the symlink transition method to move
N:   from FSSTND to FHS. This transition involves setting the link in the
N:   postinst script and removing it in the prerm script. Here is an
N:   example (/bin/sh):
N:    if [ \( "$1" = "upgrade" -o "$1" = "remove" \) -a -L /usr/doc/pkg ]; then
N:      rm -f /usr/doc/pkg
N:    fi
N:   The test for this is not perfect. If you are setting the link, please
N:   send the line of code to us so we can improve the test.

Or should I simply ignore it.

I think that it is due to the /usr/doc /usr/share/doc thing but I'm
not sure.
