I agree that this file's natural place is in /usr/share/doc/lazarus.
However it shall e in the package lazarus-ide-${version} as it is needed
even if the docs are not installed.

I don't see any issue with that. This is what I meant.

How about adding a soft link in the location where lazarus expects the
file and put the file in a proper location?

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.
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}

Let's try to do it one time right. I don't really like these in between
steps when they are not serving a real purpose. I propose we move the
other doc files right now as well. It is really trivial (with the right
lazarus-ide-<version>.intstall and lazarus-ide-<version>.links files).<br></pre></blockquote><div>I've tried what you proposed but have an issue with update.
