I downloaded the first package on that list, libroxen-asis, and looked at
its postinst, and it does indeed still have that problem. I haven't
checked the others.
The code was automatically added by dh_installdocs, so it's quite likely
that after a rebuild they would not continue to have that problem, but the
version in the archive has the bad code in its postinst.
