I think Russel was intending to get another "attribute" into the
packages file, with an entry "Documentation:" pointing to an URL where
more documentation to a given package can be found.

BTW: if you add an foo-doc package, this should also contain a the man
     files in /usr/share/man/man?/foo.?.gz
     (perhapes with out .gz, depending on the quality of the JFF2
     compression)
