I'm building a package (mozart) where documentation is provided by
upstream as sgml (about 30 documents), from which a documentation
set can be produced in html, ps or pdf. Since the binary is quite
big (a .deb is about 3 MB) and since the documentation package in
any of these formats (compressed)

Definitely drop one. I'd keep the pdf version, since there are viewers
for pdf which allow copying from the text (xpdf), which is not the
