Thanks, but ...

This forces me to ask yet another clueless question: When I install a
documentation package, like this one, where are the documentation
files placed? There is an entry corresponding to the package name in
/usr/share/doc/ but there is seldom any clue there as to where the
docucmentation was placed. Is there a general rule?  Is there a
special place where *all* documentation is put? Do I open the .deb and
read the install script? Is there a better way (I hope)? I think I am
missing something that is really basic. Help!
