Humm, I said tarring, not untarring. I rephrase: I don't think that putting tar files under /usr/doc/<package> is a good thing to do. > the problem you mentioned (dpkg not knowing what files are under > /usr/doc/*/*). I meant that untarring them under /usr/doc creates that problem. I meant that because I was thinking that /usr/doc is the _right_ place for that files, as plain files, maybe gzipped, not tarred. And if /usr/doc is the right place to put the files, then why should be untarred in another place? (apart root and ro fs ...) I say: maintainer, put the files in the right place, without tarballs.
