That's why I want this to be dealt with before etch.
>From Joey Hess' mail:
"Note that once this transition is complete we will need to do
something in base-files to remove the /usr/doc directory, if it
is empty. It won't be empty in all cases, for example a user
might have non-debian or old packages that have not transitioned
still installed. This bug can be reassigned to base-files to
deal with that last step once it is no longer blocked by any
other bugs".
I just need to find those packages that once did the "ln -s" trick.
