Sorry for not coming back to you earlier, the two packages are doc-linux-nonfree-html (which is in non-free) and doc-linux-html (which is in main). You can easily build test packages yourself by passing the -Z option to dh_builddeb (which just passes it to dpkg-deb). > Besides, do all the other dpkg-related tools work properly on > them?

Well, policy says that all files must conform to the format described in deb(5), and the latter says the following: | The third, last required member is named data.tar.gz. It contains | the filesystem archive as a gzipped tar archive. Note the word 'required'. I'll ask for opinions on debian-devel.
