Package: dpkg-mountable
Version: 0.8, as in unstable on March 24

According to the Contents file for unstable, dpkg-mountable contains
at least one file in /usr/doc/.  That directory is deprecated, and
policy section 13.3 says that packages should place documentation in
/usr/share/doc/ instead.

Please update your package soon to use the FHS compliant documentation
location so woody can ship with its documentation in a consistent,
FHS compliant state.  Thank you.

dpkg-mountable has been removed from Debian unstable and won't be
released with the next official release of Debian, codenamed "woody".

The original maintainer writes:

| * I can no longer test new versions of this package, as I'm using
|   apt-zip rather than my not-free dialup access.  I wrote it when I
|   was accessing the University's NFS archive mirror!
|
| * It's slightly buggy, and badly out-of-date policy-wise.
|
| * Apt now provides (AFAIK) all the features provided by
|   dpkg-mountable, and some (such as package ordering) that it never
|   got around to getting.

Please switch to apt.

If you have questions about this, please contact me.
