If anyone who occasionally may need these documentation in these
formats always can download original texi files and generate doc in any
format. Such needs now are so rare that distributing copies of such doc
(just in case) as packages is IMO waste of time and resources.
Other thing is that documentation should be integrated in packages and
market as %doc.
