That's simple enough. This all only works if there is no /usr/share/doc and you can move /usr/doc in an atomic operation. IMHO, packages that started using /usr/share/doc were premature in that usage and shouldn't get special accomodation. For now, packages should be built to install into /usr/doc without concern for whether that's a symlink or not. We can worry about whether we want to deal with the symlink at a later date. Mike Stone
