Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: postfix
The postifx package sets readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix even
when postfix-doc isn't installed and so there aren't actually any README
(except the Debian one) files there. If the README files aren't
installed (in postfix-doc) then it is suprising from a user perspective
to be pointed at a directory that has no readme files. postconf
readme_directory is the method recommended in postfix(1) for finding the
README files.
It might be better to set that to No in postfix and let postfix-doc set
it if it's installed. While postfix-doc may not edit config files
belonging to postfix, perhaps the postinst for postfix-doc could call
postconf and postconf change the setting.
