Hi
I would like to have all documentation installed each time i add one package.
Is there some apt/aptitude/dpkg configuration to automate this ?
by documentation i mean all man/info/html/... available with the said package.

For the majority of packages, this is already the case. There are
exceptions, when packages have large amounts of documentation they can
be split into a separate -doc package (eg. aptitude-doc-en). AFAIK,
there is no easy to way to handle

Some of the -doc packages are recommended by their parent packages, so
installing recommends works for those. But there are some -doc packages that
are not recommended.
yes, but names of doc packages are mostly pkgname-doc, except several where
it is

Some -doc packages (such as glibc-doc-reference) are quite large and of
interest only to developers.
