in that file, but in the debian customization at

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/numpy/-/blob/master/debian/patches/adapt_swig_docs_to_debian.patch

we can see the reason we install the swig interface files in the doc:
we kinda follow what upstream suggest, to copy those files in the
develop location of your wrapper and that's the reason they are in the
-doc pkg

did you develop a swig wrapper and you found it hard to locate these files?
