I though consider the policy to be the stronger rule here. :-) > After an upgrade from 5.0.2-1 to 5.0.2-2 /usr/share/doc/zsh is empty and > /usr/share/doc/zsh/copyright is missing. Thanks for noticing. > It looks like a maintainer script is missing to replace the <= 5.0.2-1 > /usr/share/doc/zsh directory with a symlink to > /usr/share/doc/zsh-common. Yeah, a symlink was planned. I though forgot that dpkg can't replace directories with symlinks. Because the symlink is actually in the package: # dpkg-deb --contents /var/cache/apt/archives/zsh_5.0.2-2_kfreebsd-i386.deb| fgrep doc drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2013-01-09 20:03 ./usr/share/doc/ lrwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2013-01-09 20:03 ./usr/share/doc/zsh -> zsh-common # > The other option is to not use the symlink and leave the doc > directory as it was. Than I'd have done initially. The idea is the get all /usr/share stuff into zsh-common, that includes /usr/share/doc/ for me: # du -sh /usr/share/doc/zsh-common/ 1.1M /usr/share/doc/zsh-common/ # > [1] might contain some useful links for this issue. [...] > [1] http://wiki.debian.org/MissingCopyrightFile Indeed, thanks. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=30;filename=nmu.diff;att=1;bug=685653 looks like some starting point. I'm though surprised that Lintian didn't catch that issue. Maybe because of the symlink in the package.
