... and I thought exactly the contrary - that %doc worked like %license, 
so I'd have to put %doc directive to mark docfiles.

So, if I understand correctly, I should use %doc only when I need to 
"manually" copy docfiles from builddir to buildroot, instead if a 
package already install docfiles in the correct position I just have to 
list as "regular" files.

Do we need to adjust upstream / Fedora docs about that?
