Hi again! TL;DR: I believe I can upload a fix to experimental & ask for unblock in the coming weekend.

OK, I understand it's not doc-debian in unstable, but only doc-debian as it is scheduled to end up in bookworm which is causing trouble in your package (and dash (!)). And I understand you want to be sure doc-debian in bookworm will ship the new-style /usr/share/doc-base/doc-debian.debian-constitution-text e.a. , not the old-style /usr/share/doc-base/debian-constitution-text . I am very sorry it took me so long to find some time to work on these long standing issues. (In my defense: I've explicitly asked for more hands: https://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/20230201193812.gb28...@beskar.mdcc.cx . And: I'm am not the doc-debian maintainer; I'm merely an uploader.) Anyway, I'll likely have time to work on this during the coming weekend; I believe I can do a fixed upload then, thanks to your very helpful hints. (And, risking stating the obvious here: NMU's very welcome.) Thanks, Bye, Joost
