Anyone who has alienized packages installed and is tracking unstable or testing probably has little or no directories left in /usr/doc and /usr/man except from any that might be part of the alien packages you've installed.
This is just a quick note that alien 7.30 fixes this oversight. Any new packages produced by this new version of alien (in Incoming) will have anything in those directories moved to FHS complient locations. This is handy, since there are plenty of non-FHS-complient rpms and stuff out there. The upshot is that if you want to complete the /usr/man and /usr/doc FHS transitions on your systems with alien packages installed, you probably can do so, by just re-alienizing them with alien 7.30. -- see shy jo
