Hi,
This is my take on the subject. An user should not need to
know about /usr/share/doc; mentioning it, espescially with the
wording that implies that one needs look into both dirs to be sure,
is exactly the kind of user interface lossage we were trying to
avoid.
/usr/doc symlinks are in place for human backward
compatibility, but, more importantly, to assure that all docs are
found under one location, namely, /usr/doc/ for potato, and
/usr/share/doc in woody. In either release, we should be able to
just look into one location for the copyright files.
Therefore mentioning /usr/share/doc to users should be
deprecated in potato; in potato all references should go through
/usr/doc/<blah>/. When woody is relaesed, we shall tell the end user
about the new location, but still retain backward compatibility with
the old location.
However, whether this is a release critical bug is
open to debate.
