Oh nice, Thanks for thoses explanations. Now i see much better what yo mean. (I've already seen package sources with install and dirs files, without really knowing why it was working). I'm surprised to see manpages links are done properly on gziped files without telling. (I've added a little line on the debian/copyright to notice you help :p) I've updated the package on http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/free42/free42_1.4.66-1.dsc Can you uploaded it to debian ?
