Bug#518801: lintian: postinst-does-not-call-installdocs is obsolete
Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.6~bpo50+1
Severity: normal
Looks like debhelper no longer adds calls to installdocs.
This is from debhelper 7.2.3 changelog:
* dh_installdocs: No longer add maintainer script code to call
doc-base, as it supports triggers in stable.
I've checked and yes - although there are no installdocs calls in packages
generated by this debhelper version, doc-base triggers do the job of
documents (un)registration.
So likely postinst-does-not-call-installdocs and
prerm-does-not-call-installdocs are now obsolete.
