Bug#40706: usr/share/doc vs. /usr/doc

[Santiago Vila <sanvila@unex.es>]

Hi,

Being too much work is not the only point, the point is that this work
would be quite useless.

There will be users who will like the symlinks, but there will be also
users who will dislike them (have we thought of them too?).

If a user likes the symlinks, he/she may create by himself/herself
after upgrading to potato:

cd /usr/share/doc
for a in `ls`; do
  ln -s ../share/doc/$a /usr/doc/$a
done

This is a much more effective way to achieving the same goal (having
symlinks), but only people who dislike having docs in /usr/share/doc
would have to do it.

Thanks.
