We do already check man pages, and adding README.Debian makes sense to me.
Going beyond that gets pretty hairy for possible false positives, but
README.Debian at least should be fine.

Bug#465192: lintian: Please warn on documentation referring to /usr/doc

[Guillem Jover]

Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.45
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Even if we've completed the /usr/doc to /usr/share/doc transition some
time ago, there's still documentation in Debian referring to /usr/doc.
Those should probably be fixed. On my system, this crude check:

 $ find /usr/share/doc -type f| grep -v [Cc]hangelog | xargs zgrep /usr/doc

gives some hundred hits. There's few false positives though, like
the policy upgrade-checklist.txt, I guess those could be excluded.

regards,
guillem
