Adding this so it won't get forgotten... deppackage.postinst.in is added to each packages postinst that has a replaced doc dir. If I understand what was posted before this might be a policy violation. It has been part of OOo in Ubuntu since at least before Ubuntu 7.10 when I took over maintenance but hasn't caused a noticeable problem.
