This bug HTML output should include LINK tags in HEAD is still

debiandoc-sgml's default behavior has been kept so.
But this program iself is capable to generae such tags.
After #140677 was fixed in 1.1.60 in Sat, 6 Apr 2002, this feature
have been disabled as default because adding such tag was ugly for
console browsers such as links.
I use the browser w3m-el, which is a text browser that uses the
console browser w3m as the back end. It does not display LINK
metadata at the top of the page; instead it has the following effects:
- if I use space to scroll down, and I'm at the bottom of the page,
it goes to the rel=next URL.
- if I use backspace to scroll up, and I'm at the top of the page,
it goes to the rel=prev URL.
- if I use u, which normally goes from http://foo/bar/baz to
http://foo/bar/, it instead goes to the rel=toc URL.
When using the html2ps browser, I can use these links to generate a
single printable document of a large document, without having to
specify the URL of every file individually.
These behaviours are enormously useful for reading large documents; if
lynx and links do ugly things with this metadata then I think you
should be complaining to the developers of those programs, not the
content providers (such as debiandoc-sgml). Probably they should make
the ugliness an option.
