Every entry in /usr/share/doc needs to have a symlink in /usr/doc, I suggest you file a bug report against the package that made /usr/share/doc/kde. > WHY ? why is not just /usr/doc a symlink to usr/share/doc. There was a bug in dpkg that prevented doing that at the time we needed to start switching from /usr/doc/* to /usr/share/doc/*, so we did this. It should be possible just to rm -rf /usr/doc and make the symlink yourself now. -- Digital Electronic Being Intended for Assassination and Nullification
