This sounds like a blatant bug in rarian to me ;-)
Although, there was a bz requesting that rarian own that folder. I
thought I might be missing some knowledge about whether a help file for
an app could/should live there.
Well, the question would be: Is /usr/share/help an acceptable directory
to be owned by an arbitrary application?
IMO, it is not. It's a too general directory name to allow an arbitrary
application to own it and fill it with some "non-standardized files".
In some cases it's possible to override values at "configuration-time"
or make-time.
I hoped there would be, but alas, the source code needed to be modified.
I placed the file in %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/%{name}.
I take it from Ralf's answer, that this is an acceptable/suitable place
to put it ?
AIUI, it couldn't go in %doc dir ?
And should the folder include the version (or does it that only apply to
%doc location ?).
Which package are we talking about? Are the sources rsp. your packaging
publicly available somewhere?
