Don't know what the LFSH is.
This situation is handled explicitly by Debian Policy, section 12.6 Examples
Any examples (configurations, source files, whatever), should be
installed in a directory `/usr/share/doc/<package>/examples'. These
files should not be referenced by any program: they're there for the
benefit of the system administrator and users as documentation only.
Architecture-specific example files should be installed in a directory
`/usr/lib/<package>/examples' with symbolic links to them from
`/usr/share/doc/<package>/examples', or the latter directory itself
may be a symbolic link to the former.

So the correct Debian location would be /usr/share/doc/emc2/examples/
