Hello Steffen,

I really like to see that the README is installed automatically.
Usually you want to install these READMEs and only in few cases you want to keep them away from the binary package, so why not doing a filter-out?
Specify what you want in the variable  DEB_INSTALL_DOCS_ALL
and maybe append a "filter-out README" or something similiar.

I believe you misunderstood my bugreport. I totally agree that it's usually a good idea having the README installed into each binary.

This bugreport is about having a common README in DEB_INSTALL_DOCS_ALL overriding a README (from a different location) mentioned in per-package file <package>.docs.

Of course I could do filter-out README on my own. But that's not the point. The point is that I *expected* cdbs to respect the files listed in <package>.docs and installing those in preference to those listed in DEB_INSTALL_DOCS_ALL. That's what I suppose it to be, and why I reported this bug. :-)

Having a workaround is of course also interesting: I helped me by having an additional binary-post-install/<package>:: hook in debian/rules which installs the wanted README again (calling dh_installdocs -p<package>).

Yours
  Micha
