That's the odd thing. I reinstalled the cups rpms several times and still the 
files does not show. It happens with the cups rpm in the Mandrake 9.1 as well 
as the last one (cups-1.1.19-1.1mdk) downloaded from 
"http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake/Mandrake/updates/9.1/RPMS";.

After I manually copied the "/usr/share/doc/cups" files from my workstation, I 
decided to retry reinstalling all cups packages again (included ghostscript, 
requiered by cups-drivers). The problem still persists, but one thing I noted 
is that while "rpm -Uhv cups-1.1.19-1.1mdk" does not install these files, 
"rpm -e cups" does not delete them either. I had to delete the 
"/usr/share/doc/cups" directory manually after removing the packages and 
before installing them again. Normally, "rpm -e cups" remove the complete 
directory automatically.

To me that means rpm knows it is not installing these files, so it does not 
need to remove them. The problem is why it is deciding not to install them?
