> So, I think we must threat it as "documentation in -devel OR -doc"

There is one unwritten guideline above all others. It's called "consider common
sense".

If a -devel package included a couple of "man 3" pages for its API headers and
also at least one large PDF file or a huge HTML tree, would you move _all_ %doc
files into a separate -doc package? No. Nothing in the guidelines says you must
decide between either -devel OR -doc. You are free to move the large files into
-doc and keep other documentation files in -devel. It's the obvious solution.
And convenient, too. Just as you're free to put further non-development
oriented documentation files into other sub-packages.

The original idea to create a -examples package for only six tiny source files
was a weird and unpractical idea, and I think now you just don't want to let
loose. That's why you show resistance. ;)

So what? --v

> Off course some of that is errors,

Exactly. :-) Don't treat them as good examples.
