Package: john
Version: 1.7-2
Severity: minor

There is a dead symlink in /usr/share/doc/john. The symlink README
points to /usr/share/doc/doc/REAMDE wich doesn't exist.
The reason for that is the variable DEB_INSTALL_DOCS_ALL
in /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk.

You have to unset this variable in debian/rules.

You should rename debian/README because there is also doc/README with
the same filename.
