Hello! I think the best way to provide sections with doc-base is to include them in some sort of a registration file:
Section: /instadm/hardware/laptop Title: Laptops Abstract: Linux has native support for hardware usually found in laptops, like PCMCIA and APM. I think this are the only three things interesting (am I missing something?). I will work on the transition from my free form ascii structure to this format (because I can easily strip additional fields for internal use by me ;) If it is too difficult to make the parser intelligent enough to keep Sections: and Documents: apart, please rename the Section: field of documents. Probably to Placement: or Location:. It would probably be a good idea to forbid Section: fields in package registrations by default. The reasons are explained in my other mails and are not repeated here. It would then be a bug for a package to have a Location: field that does not match with any Section: (this check would be easy). An optional line: Section: /devel/debian Linkto: /debian/devel will be used if Section is only virtual. In this case, it is an error to place a document under the Section: name. Instead, it should use a valid non-link name, as links may be deleted or changed (and then no document registration should be needed to change). Links are only for convenience of the user, like /usr/bin/X11. The point is that a document is not allowed to register under a link name, it has to use the proper Section: name.
