I expect the answer for Ubuntu is that it's the way that Debian does it. Debian traditionally distributes documentation in a separate package because it's architecture independent, and the binaries are not. Therefore, including it in the main package would bloat the archive substantially by including a copy of identical data for each architecture. Doing it this way also allows people to not install documentation that they don't need, say, on a server. --=20 brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | https://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204 --ogbu5ijgunup5ps6 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.1.18 (GNU/Linux) iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEX8OngXdrJt+H9ww3v1NdgR9S9osFAlj4BEsACgkQv1NdgR9S 9oteAw//bLIwl4O4Pr0M9CHyHjHWnHfLRUJGA5FX0bZJ/RN26nUBMAjHPNQ+2uw4 kOqsh7fOmp7Vw+pgJR13iYjSyahnNy4whpi72kbbPNvetkjDCd63pSO6T9FpqecC 8X6DKYmr+Sb5kCVS0kWc5Sa5nIZKeJsgyM78UfC3gRHr8P7rC148mxMm/9ceCu4/ D8P6sjCm2xBMKNvmcrndF2mWGgmq6Kr7O67mLYAR+89Hk950J1yMjAJIG8M/oAh0 bQMn95YatjNHn2x9+tTgTX3IaXc9Ww++q1YY5SairqugGDHeA3pME+We5lwvWGhB nNmaQmV2u+8wUdZZ6pFcuK2P75DlEXxSaklY697DwY0pDVygRWnvdp6MI/m5wLBK fXV77z7NRmC5LTCdvUMvyY2oUz30M/dce+6VlG2B9smtWG/5vahUTCj4H+v9duEy vsiIIoy0AMDTNsMl4szGybF1sQdN9CBkgksUan0yg9SaSoAWLa1jYxruNms7lItU 6+6FwNzYuKq31OFf+oO7EYv3OQebstnbg+a2IEduiOaTo1NJhWEK8NfYhm70/Pnr sIPiDDmKMNMd//BRTxgy24uFB9yStJrONsm9LvbbIuKnJRgl79acRIdSCKFtwm4O 1n01CaVGMlUVwQ5JADqKFVUq16zlaVXbDR+GjCKxGAW4859JVEo= =wwcC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ogbu5ijgunup5ps6--
