Does this mean you'll make a dpkg NMU soon? I'll set up a separate
packaging-manual package in the next days, and this requires an updated
dpkg package.

I'll take the following files:

 from dpkg source package:
      doc/changelog
      doc/packaging.sgml

 from dpkg binary package:
      usr/doc/dpkg/packaging.html/*

 from dpkg-dev binary package:
      usr/doc/dpkg/changelog.manuals.gz

I'll make the new "packaging-manual" Conflict with older versions of dpkg
too avoid that users have the manual installed twice. I think the new dpkg
version should then Suggest the package "packaging-manual" to inform users
about the new package.

Please tell me if you could do these changes to dpkg. Note, that the
changes I have to make to the packaging-manual are urgent, since they
affect hamm. If you don't have time for this, I'll do a NMU of dpkg 
myself.


Thanks,

Chris
