I'm closing this without action. I've looked at the cfengine info files, and I think it's clear from the context that the references to /usr/local are examples. However, I've done some grepping around in /usr/info and in /usr/man/* and found numerous other packages which make references to /usr/local. In my own packages, I've been trying to provide debianized docs which change references to /usr/local to just plain /usr where it's clear from the context that this would be incorrect on a debian system. I've come to think that even this amount of twiddling the upstream docs may be too much, and debian would be better off to adopt a policy of leaving such references untouched and providing clear info in system docs that such references in debian package docs should be taken as references to files in /usr, and not in /usr/local.
