Package: src:gnome-user-docs

Some pages have buttons for installing some package. They don't work on Debian, but clicking them only results in an "Additional Packages Required" message.

The links are of the type 'action="install:<pkg>"'. Ubuntu has replaced those with 'href="apt:<pkg>"' links, and I would suggest that the same replacement (via s/// in debian/rules) takes place in Debian.

Unlike Debian, Ubuntu has access to the apturl package, which is used by default on Ubuntu for handling apt: links. On Debian the users would be taken to GNOME Software instead, which is fine, and certainly better than "Additional Packages Required".
