Package: dpkg
Version: 1.6.12.99
dpkg(1) says:
It should not be used by package maintainers wishing to
understand how dpkg will install their packages. The
descriptions of what dpkg does when installing and remov
ing packages are particularly inadequate. For detailed
information about this, please refer to the Package Man
agement System topic under debian-faq in the GNU Info sys
tem. For information about creating Debian packages, see
the Debian Package Management Tools topic in the same
place.
joey@silk:~>zgrep -i 'Debian Package Management Tools' /usr/share/info/*
joey@silk:~>zgrep -i 'Package Management System' /usr/share/info/*
joey@silk:~>zgrep -i 'debian-faq' /usr/share/info/*
This should be changed to point to documentation that actually exists.
I suggest the Packaging Manual and the Developer's Reference.
