Same here. $ ls -ld /usr/share/texmf/doc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 2 11:03 /usr/share/texmf/doc -> ../doc/texmf $ ls -ld /usr/share/doc/texmf drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Oct 3 21:44 /usr/share/doc/texmf > This symlink should have been created by a Debian package, probably > tex-common: > vdanj...@eyak:~$ dlocate /usr/share/texmf/doc > tex-common: /usr/share/texmf/doc > vdanj...@eyak:~$ dlocate /usr/share/doc/texmf > [lots of packages] $ dpkg -S /usr/share/doc/texmf tex-common, luatex, feynmf, latex-xcolor, pgf, lmodern, preview-latex-style, latex-cjk-common, thailatex: /usr/share/doc/texmf $ dpkg -S /usr/share/texmf/doc tex-common: /usr/share/texmf/doc So at least 8 tex packages using it and symlink is the other way.
