Hmmmm.  Looking at the contents of a freshly-downloaded cdrecord deb, it does 
appear to ship a symlink.  However, on my system, I have:

$ ls -ld /usr/share/doc/cdrecord
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2006-09-07 21:01 /usr/share/doc/cdrecord

The same appears to hold true for the doc directories in the couple of other 
packages I filed bugs on.

I have not done anything unusual here.  I had the non-dummy packages installed
at one point, and later upgraded to the dummy packages.  Have I perhaps run
afoul of some bug concerning the replacement of a directory with a symlink?
