Then you may want to try this one-liner:
>--------------------------------------------------------------------<
for i in /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list; do j=${i%.list} && \
ln -s $i /usr/doc/${j#/var/lib/dpkg/info/}/MANIFEST; done
>--------------------------------------------------------------------<
unless you're short of inodes, of course. ;-)
