I got bug reports for 6 of the globus packages saying they did not

However, the same problem exists in all globus packages providing a doc
binary package (except for one that just recently had the doc package
added and never had the symlink). I have uploaded updates for all 29
affected globus packages, and not only the 6 packages I got bug reports
for. I would like for you to consider unblocking all of them.

These uploads adds the maintainer scripts needed to handle the
symlink-to-dir conversion properly to the latest version in unstable,
without other changes (except adding VERBOSE=1 to the make check call
where it was not there before).

Admittedly I only checked the first couple of packages, but it looks like the dpkg Pre-Depends for symlink_to_dir is missing; I've assumed that is the case for all 29.
