Using Lazarus 1.4, each time the mouse hovers an identifier a dialog box
complaining about missing lazdoc.css file will prompt. This leads to
very uncomfortable use of the IDE.
The IDE looks for that file in /lib/lazarus/${version}/docs, while the
normal place of that file is /usr/share/doc/lazarus/${version}. However
this will need patching and could be not very easy.
On the other hand, the direcotry /usr/lib/lazarus/${version} already
exist and contains text files
$ls /usr/lib/lazarus/1.4.0/docs
acknowledgements.txt Contributors.txt contributors.utf8

I think we should move the contents of those files to
/usr/share/doc/lazarus(|-ide) and replace these files with a softlink.

I haven't looked at the examples, but I guess the same goes for them,
examples in general should be in /usr/share/doc/<name>/examples/

$dpkg -S /usr/lib/lazarus/1.4.0/docs

I'd propose to add this file to lazarus-ide-${version} despite it is
arch independent as many other files of this package. What do you think?

How about adding a soft link in the location where lazarus expects the
file and put the file in a proper location?
</pre></blockquote><div> Soft link is fine with me, but the file itself is 2kB so not a big deal, does it really hurt to let it there.</div><div>Then later we can move all the files on doc to /usr/share and make /usr/lib/lazarus/${version}/docs a symlink to a location in /usr/share/lzarus/${version}</div><blockquote type="cite"><pre>
I also think we already split up enough of fpc and lazarus, so unless it
really saves space (lintian would have told us) let's not introduce more
packages to fix this.<br></pre></blockquote><div>I agree too.</div><div class="-x-evo-signature-wrapper"><span><pre>--
