ls -ld doesn't tell you if a file is a symlink; run `ls -l /usr/doc`
instead. I just installed your package and it is a symlink not a directory:

elroy:/home/hgebel/src/dpkg# ls -ld /usr/doc/ibrazilian/
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Mar 30 13:04 /usr/doc/ibrazilian/
elroy:/home/hgebel/src/dpkg# ls -l /usr/doc/ | grep ibrazilian
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           23 Mar 30 13:04 ibrazilian -> ../share/doc/ibrazilian
