Hi mentors: I maintained a XIM:gcin for the zh-TW users and met into problem.
A program of the software which have the "help" function will read the /usr/share/doc/gcin/README (by gedit). I made a gcin.doc and wanted to install the README.zh-TW (I cp to a different filename and also modified the upstream software) and of course the dh_installdocs would gzip the file so that the gedit couldn't open it. I checked up the xine-ui source because xine-ui has the same situation like mime. The maintainer gunzip the README.*.gz file so that the help dialog works. Also, he knew that it might violate the policy. Should I also gunzip the README file to make the help function work or there are some ways to prove it? Thanks. Best Regards Asho Yeh
