Package: dwww
Version: 1.11.5
Severity: wishlist

As far as I can tell, the only place where the indexing of the
directory trees is configured is in

 /usr/share/dwww/functions.sh

by the environmental variable

 DWWW_DOCPATH="/usr/share/doc:/usr/doc:/usr/share/info:
/usr/info:/usr/share/man:/usr/man:/usr/X11R6/man:
/usr/local/man:/usr/local/doc:/usr/local/info:
/usr/share/common-licenses"

dwww should allow the easy addition or configuration of
the search path, especially for /usr/local document
directory trees, either by a variable in the /etc/dww/dww.conf
file, or perhaps a variable in /etc/default/dwww.

In this way, local directory trees such as /usr/local/X11R6/man
or /usr/local/share/doc can be added.

Why /usr/local/doc is specified in the original, rather than
/usr/local/share/doc is not clear.

Thanks for your support,
J G Miller
