 Replying to [comment:4 bdu...@…]:
 > The rationale is that newer packages don't delete obsolete documentation
 that may still be in /usr/share/doc when upgrading.

 Newer packages also don't delete older shared library versions, or
 obsolete header files.  We don't cater to that...

 (To be specific, I'm talking about e.g. /lib/libz.so.1.2.3 not being
 replaced when upgrading from zlib-1.2.3 to zlib-1.2.<newer>.)

 I don't know the rationale behind making ${docdir} be
 /usr/share/doc/${PACKAGE_TARNAME} in autoconf.  I'd assume they don't care
 about removing obsolete documentation files...  :-)
