Bug#323737: FTBFS: Too few template-parameter lists

  FWIW, in 2.4 and 2.6 Linux kernels you also have the option to use mount
  --bind, and in 2.6 kernels there's also mount --move, to let you distribute

  Yes, that's definitely my preference.  If you can provide an updated source

I realised I could use 'mount -bind' instead of a symbolic link
yesterday and now it all works fine with the relative links.  My
regular sponsor has uploaded a new fixed package and so this bug
should be fixed real soon now. 

Thanks for the offer and the help,

Kevin

   contradict policy here.

 Thanks for the reference,  I have also noticed this from Section 12.3
 of the Debian Policy:

Packages must not require the existence of any files in
/usr/share/doc/ in order to function [73]. Any files that are
referenced by programs but are also useful as stand alone
documentation should be installed under /usr/share/package/ with
symbolic links from /usr/share/doc/package.
