Follow-up Comment #5, bug #41125 (project gnustep):

> As a package, I'd also appreciate when it would be easily possible to
install
> the documentation in the same run as the rest of the package. 

I sympathise with this … I would like documentation to be generated and
installed automatically as part of packages.  However, I was outvoted on that
many years ago and the policy for all the GNUstep core stuff is to have
documentation separate from the rest of the package.  I'm sure there were many
good arguments for this even though they didn't, on balance, convince me
(maybe it's been enough years that we might re-open that policy discussion).

For all the GNUstep core packages, the developer package (library/framework
and headers) is built/installed separately from the documentation package.
I suppose that's a convenience on systems where policy dictates separate
packages for documentation, but it seems inconvenient where no such separation
is required.
