Migration to /usr/share/doc
Hi everybody.
This may be quite stupid or frivolous. :-)
I have noticed the migration of the extra documentation files from
/usr/doc/ to /usr/share/doc/ (as also describes the Debian Policy
chapter 13.3).
I am trying not to use exclusively the simbolic link to /usr/share/doc/
but to look directly to the new folder. Well, I there is a (very)
simple and boring fact: the <tab> completion locks because there is
/usr/share/doc-base/ too.
I searched for some explanations about it in the Debian Policy, even if
its name is self-explanatory. I did not find anything.
Couri
So my questions/proposals are:
- Why this directory exists? And what is it about?
- Is it possible to move their contents to /usr/share/doc/ allowing a
faster search through the filesystem?
Thanks for reading,
Giorgio
