The pcmcia-modules-2.2.18 package shipped with Debian depends on
kernel-image-2.2.18, but pcmcia-modules packages in general -- e.g., those
built locally by users to accompany their custom kernels --- do not have

Attached is my conversion script. It's parameterized at the top, so you
can make copies of /usr/doc and /usr/share doc and point it at them
