Just a deb for the doco.

I think I will make a meta-package called `gnu-doc' having  
`binutils-doc' and the like as dependencies. That way, Richard will be  
able to have all GNU doc with one command, while people working with,  
say `gawk', will only have to install `gawk-doc'.

Do you think I better have to work on files from:
- `apt-get source $SOFTWARE-doc' from metad,
- or source files from gnu.org (metad version number)?

binutils, gcc and gdb info files are already on  
http://bzr.savannah.org/r/gnewsense/docs.
