Re: Preferred (smartest?) way of dealing with packages installing docs into %{_docdir}

Well, I don't know how, but the mv solution did not work. I did it the
xine-lib way. Thanks to anybody who has invented it.

How are these docs installed? Something similar happens in LucidLife,
(as the docdir in Makefile.in is hardcoded as "$(datadir)/doc/lucidlife"
and I keep a small patch to change that to the proper
"$(datadir)/doc/lucidlife-<version>" directory.

Hope that helps.
