Perhaps someone would like to upload a .deb that does nothing more than
maintain symlinks?

Something as simple as having a /etc/cron.daily script that does:

        [ -d /usr/doc ] || exit 0

        cd /usr/share/doc
        for dir in *; do
                [ -e "/usr/doc/$a" ] || ln -s /usr/share/doc/$a /usr/doc/$a
        done
        
seems to me like an acceptable solution at this point.

Cheers,
aj
