I moved /usr/doc to /home/doc, since I have more space on the partition that is mounted on /home. Then I created a softlink to it: ln -s /home/doc /usr/doc The problem is now, that some packages (r-base 1.0.0-1 is an example) store documentation in different locations, and refer to it with softlinks using ../ These softlinks now clearly point to a non existing location. Is there a nice solution to solve this problem? Stef
