Dear release managers,

I am asking for a freeze exception for 
        alqalam 0.2-6
which fixes a RC bug wrt placement of files under /usr/share/texmf/doc.
The same happened in cm-super-minimal and was fixed there with
an NMU and freeze-exempted (see bug #577635).

The only change is that it stops shipping files in
        /usr/share/texmf/doc
because this is a symlink to /usr/share/doc/texmf, and thus it
depends on the order of installation of alqalam and tex-common
if it really becomes a symlink or not.

More details are discussed in the bug report #577635 of cm-super-minimal
that had the same problems.

The debdiff is minimal, here it it:

Thus, I would like to ask for an unblock.

unblock alqalam/0.2-6

Thanks a lot and all the best
