We had previously established a convention that /usr/doc was to contain just subdirectories (plus, possibly, a README file explaining what /usr/doc is all about). These files should go in /usr/doc/DEBIAN, I'd say. Also, these files don't appear to have been installed by a package (at least they don't appear in any of my /var/lib/dpkg/info/*list files). mitchell@mdd.comm.mot.com (Bill Mitchell) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Acknowledgement sent to Bill Mitchell : New bug report received and forwarded.
